Original Description
At The Close Of Day by Australian Impressionist William Lister-Lister (1859–1943) is a captivating pastoral landscape that encapsulates the serene transition from day to dusk. Painted in the late 19th to early 20th century during Australia’s Heidelberg School movement, the work embodies tonal realism with soft, diffused light and harmonious earthy hues—hallmarks of Lister-Lister’s style. The scene depicts a lone shepherd guiding cattle through a tranquil river under a golden-hazy sky, evoking contemplation and solitude. Celebrated for bridging European Impressionism with Australian rural nostalgia, the piece holds significance in Oceania’s colonial art history, reflecting the era’s romanticized connection to land and labor.
For interiors, this artwork lends warmth to spaces craving organic tranquility. Hang it in a study or lounge with muted, nature-inspired décor—think linen upholstery, reclaimed wood furniture, or matte bronze accents—to complement its earthy palette. Optimal placement is above a low console or fireplace, where its typical 60x90cm scale commands attention without overwhelming. Pair with directional lighting (2700K warm-white) to enhance its golden undertones. In offices, it fosters calm in executive rooms; balance its softness with structured mid-century modern furnishings for contrast. Avoid stark white walls—opt for "greige" or sage backdrops to harmonize with the painting’s weathered greens and ochres, creating a cohesive, restorative ambiance.
