| 'From My Camp' Arthur Streeton 1896 |
Great music for a walk around our foreshores or on a desert island.

"I shout and laugh at my immense wealth, all free and without responsibility. Who could steal this from me? No-one" Arthur Streeton
(The wonderful thing about these two images is that with about a century between them.)

This foreshore walk has it all - spectacular views to the city, natural bushland, history: with places to linger and imagine how it was for the young men at the Artists' Camps.
1890's Streeton and Roberts 'pulled through the lazy green water
and lunched in the shade and in the open air'
to join their fellow artists under canvas
in camps set up by Hopkins and Ashton.
" 'til matrimony claimed their souls"
My walk took me here to the same spot this week.
