"In 1896 the artist completed his work, The Purple Noon's Transparent Might. This was painted from the top of a hill overlooking the Hawkesbury River, N.S.W and brought Streeton heightened recognition from the Australian public. He went on to hold an outstandingly successful exhibition in Melbourne in 1897 before sailing for London."
