Sandridge

Arthur Streeton cattura la vivace energia industriale di Port Melbourne (allora conosciuta come Sandridge) in questa scena nebbiosa e atmosferica. Spesse colonne di fumo si levano dalle navi a vapore, fondendosi con il cielo pallido e scintillante e con l'acqua in un classico stile impressionista. Dipinta nel 1894, quest'opera mette in mostra la maestria dell'artista australiano nella resa della luce e il suo fascino per il porto moderno e lavorativo. Si può quasi odorare l'aria salmastra e il fumo di carbone mentre gli scafi scuri delle navi si riflettono nell'acqua increspata.
