1 TASMANIA HISTORY, ART AND LANDSCAPE FEBRUARY 4-11, 2017 TOUR LEADER: ROBERT VEEL John Glover: Hobart Town and Mount Wellington, c.1834
2
3 Overview Tasmania has a distinctive history, culture and landscape which makes it quite different from Australia s other states and territories. This tour offers a unique itinerary which combines the island s well-known attractions with sites of particular interest to travellers with a strong interest in history and the arts. Staying in both Launceston and Hobart, with day trips to surrounding areas, we visit historic homes and gardens and travel though stunning landscapes. Art lovers are well catered for, with an in-depth look at colonial artist John Glover and a visit to the renowned Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) on the Derwent River near Hobart. Tasmania was one of the first places to be settled, and this is reflected in the fine early colonial architecture, with many towns and homesteads dating from the 1830s and 40s. It was also a place of social experimentation in the 1800s, when convicts were sent from England to be improved in Tasmania as artisans, farmers and craftspeople. Side by side with this experimentation was the absolute inhumanity of places like Macquarie Harbour. Tasmania has enjoyed a boom in tourism in recent years, and today enjoys an international reputation for its pristine environment, vibrant arts scene and fine food and wine. Your tour leader Robert Veel is a founding director of Academy Travel and has over 20 years experience designing and leading special interest tours. He holds a Bachelor of Arts and Masters of Education from the University of Sydney, where he taught for many years. Robert initially led tours to Italy, before developing itineraries to, Turkey, Asia, the United States and Scandinavia. Robert designed and led Academy Travel s first tour to Tasmania in late 2015, part of the Association of Australian Decorative and Fine Arts Society s travel program. For Robert, it is Tasmania s very distinctive landscape and history that makes it so appealing. When you travel, you want to feel that you are experiencing something new, out of the ordinary. Although it is very much part of Australia, it is surprising how very different Tasmania is from the mainland. Tasmania s cooler climate has a lot of influence on this. On our first tour to Tasmania we were bowled over by the gardens. Roses grow in abundance, in a way that they just can t in humid Sydney or Brisbane. And the rolling hills and mild temperatures for cool climate wines, something we ve only come to realize in the last 10 or so years. But it s not just the physical environment that s different, says Robert. Tasmania s history is also different from the mainland. Convict transportation is just one part of the picture, and one needs to go beyond the cliché of the stolen loaf of bread to understand the island s complex social history. Our tour leader Robert Veel was ever-present, energetic, enthusiastic and entertaining an excellent tour leader.

4 The English Claude Down Under John Glover s depiction of Nile Creek. European landscape meets indigenous Australia. Tasmania s most significant contribution to Australian art history is the career of painter John Glover, who lived in northern Tasmania from 1831 until his death in 1849 at the age of 82. Glover has been dubbed the father of Australian landscape painting. Certainly he is the leading figure in 19th century painting in Australia, and it is not until the very late 19th and early 20th century that we see artists of a similar calibre emerging on the Australian mainland. Much of Glover s reputation stems from the fact that he was a highly successful painter in his native England before he moved to Australia. Glover began his career as a practising artist when still young. The earliest notices we have of him are from Jane Stanhope, the Countess of Harrington, was an important patron. Lady Harrington who had been painted twice by Sir Joshua Reynolds, helped establish Glover as an art instructor and probably took lessons from him. Glover moved to London in 1805 and in 1807 was elected president of the Water Colour Society, although after 1810 most of his works are in oil. The fall of Napoleon allowed Glover to exhibit in the Paris salon of 1814, and it believed that one of his large works attracted the interest of Louis XVIII. He excelled in romantic depictions of the English and Southern European landscape, painted in the fashionable Italian style of the day. His subjects included the Lake District and Loch Ness, and in many ways his career in England parallels that of his famous contemporary JMW Turner. At some stage after 1810 he acquired the nickname of the English Claude. This is simultaneously a measure of the esteem in which he was held Claude Lorrain was hugely popular and much-admired in England in the 1800s and a great piece of selfpromotion. Glover moved to Tasmania for the climate. He was quite wealthy by this stage, and began steadily acquiring land. He moved from Hobart to a very large land holding just south of Launceston in We know from documents that we was still earning around 1,000 per year from his paintings. Glover s paintings are held by all the major Australian galleries, but the greatest range of works is to be found in the Launceston and Hobart galleries, both of which we visit on this tour. His paintings combine the technical excellence of European landscape paintings with a special feel for the light, colours and vegetation of Tasmania. In spite of his high reputation, Glover s romanticised style is not without its critics, especially the way in which he depicts indigenous Australians.
