Tasmanian Dreamscapes

The three paintings here are in vastly different styles, but each represent something of the dreaming of immigrant settlers in the Tasmanian landscape.

 

1. On the left is a beautiful painting of The First Basin at the Cataract Gorge from 1895. www.flickr.com/photos/luminosity7/48820837578/in/dateposted/

It is by Gladstone Eyre (1862-1933) and reminds me very much of the work of American artist Winslow Homer (1836-1910).

 

2. In the centre we have Geoff Parr's "Seascape towards Evening" 1967.

 

3. On the right is a striking landscape "Untitled" by Denise Campbell from 1973.
