Note: "Otago landscape" is typical of O'Brien's landscapes, and demonstrates the liberties he took to achieve an ideal view within the conventions of a classical landscape in the manner of Claude Lorrain, the seventeenth-century French landscape painter. The scene has been effortlessly manipulated to fit O'Brien's favoured oval format. The foreground is highly detailed, with flax bushes framing the lefthand side; the fence on the right leads the eye over the hill, plunging into a cool blue valley and on to a small settlement already cast into dusk. The hills are sharply defined, and the sky, garishly aglow with the orange and pink hues of a sunset, consumes almost half the painting. (Rebecca Rice, 2009) | |
