Charles Conder was one of a celebrated group of artists who painted landscapes outdoors around Sydney and Melbourne during the 1880s. Together with Tom Roberts and Arthur Streeton he was a major instigator of the groundbreaking 9 by 5 impressions exhibition in Melbourne in 1889. Of this group, Conder was the only one to go on to become a legendary figure in the turn of the century art world of Paris and London.In the 1880s, seaside leisure became a crucial part of Australian imagery. Conder visited Bronte Beach in Sydney on the Queen’s Birthday holiday on 24 May 1888. He made two paintings outdoors on that day, both of which are distinctive for their watercolour-style application of oil paint. In Bronte Beach Conder achieved a particularly pearly translucence. This may have been the result of his interest in the flat washes of colour in Japanese paintings. Certainly, the high viewpoint and horizon line, flattened perspective and carefully placed figures are reminiscent of the oriental art much admired at the time. But the hazy sky and sun-bleached expanse of sand evoke a specifically Australian sense of space.Text © National Gallery of Australia, Canberra 2010From: Ron Radford (ed), Collection highlights: National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, 2008

Early Life and Artistic Journey

Charles Edward Conder (1868 – 1909) was an English-born painter, lithographer and designer who left an indelible mark on the art world. Born in Tottenham, Middlesex, the second son of six children, of James Conder, civil engineer and Mary Ann Ayres, he spent several years as a young child in India until the death of his mother (aged 31 years) on 14 May 1873 in Bombay, when Charles was four; he was then sent back to England and attended a number of schools including a boarding school at Eastbourne, which he attended from 1877. He left school at 15, and his very religious, non-artistic father, against Charles’s natural artistic inclinations, decided that he should follow in his footsteps as a civil engineer.

Artistic Career in Australia

In 1884, at the age of 16, he was sent to Sydney, Australia, where he worked for his uncle, a land surveyor for the New South Wales government. However he disliked the work, much preferring to draw the landscape rather than surveying it. In 1886, he left the job and became an artist for the *Illustrated Sydney News*, where he was in the company of other artists such as Albert Henry Fullwood and Frank Mahony. He also attended the painting classes of Alfred James Daplyn and had joined the Art Society of New South Wales. During his time in Melbourne, Conder collaborated with Tom Roberts, whom he had previously met in Sydney, sharing a studio and exploring new artistic horizons. The influence of Roberts’s expressive style undoubtedly shaped Conder's own approach to painting.

The Heidelberg School and Notable Works

Conder’s masterpiece, *Departure of the Orient – Circular Quay* (1888), showcased his newfound mastery of form and brushwork. This dockside scene, depicting the bustling harbour at Sydney Cove at the moment when the *has cast off for her voyage to England*, was quickly purchased by the Art Gallery of New South Wales, making it Conder’s first work to enter a public collection. It exemplifies the Heidelberg School's fascination with capturing fleeting moments of light and atmosphere—a technique honed through meticulous observation and experimentation. Alongside Roberts and Arthur Streeton, Conder contributed significantly to the Heidelberg School movement, establishing it as a distinctive Australian tradition in Western art.

Legacy and Later Life

Conder’s later years were marked by persistent illness, including paralysis and a bout of delirium tremens. Despite these challenges, he continued to paint, producing evocative landscapes and portraits that reflect his profound engagement with the natural world and human experience. His work gained recognition in England, where it contrasted sharply with its reception in Paris—a testament to Conder’s artistic vision and enduring appeal. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec immortalized Conder's likeness in a portrait that now resides in the National Gallery of Australia, securing his place as one of Melbourne’s most celebrated artists. His legacy continues to inspire art enthusiasts worldwide, reminding us of the transformative power of creativity and perseverance.
