In 1891, Arthur Streeton was the first Australian born artist to have his work shown at London’s Royal Academy (RA). When his friend Charles Conder went to Europe in 1890 he took with him Streeton’s Golden summer, Eaglemont, 1889, which was included at the RA exhibition of 1891 and the Paris Salon in 1892. Streeton moved to England in 1899 and lived there intermittently until returning permanently to Australia in 1929. His work was seen regularly at the RA until 1924 and Corfe Castle was listed as number 187 in the RA exhibition of 1910. There is a marked stylistic difference between Streeton’s Australian landscapes and those he produced in Britain for a British audience.
