Because of the history of colonisation in this part of the world the largest overseas national school of paintings held in Australia and New Zealand museums comes from Britain. This comprehensive and detailed catalog sheds light on the taste and collecting influences of the period. It will prove an essential tool for those wishing to locate paintings by particular artists.
Brief introductions are followed by a catalog by artists with full details of their paintings and locations. There is also a useful index of artists by collection.
