OriginalGolden Summer, Eaglemont, painted in 1889 by Australian artist Arthur Streeton and held at the National Gallery of Australia
Reason
Arthur Streeton is one of Australia's most famous artists and Golden Summer is considered by many to be his first masterpiece. It was the first painting by an Australian-born artist to go on display at London's Royal Academy, and also the first Australian work to win an award at the Paris Salon. In 1995, it was acquired by the National Gallery of Australia for $3.5 million, then a record price for an Australian painting.[source]

  • Support Computer screens can't really do justice to this large and impressive painting (which captures the colours and landscape of an Australian summer day remarkably well), but this is a good scan with strong EV. 05:34, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
