This evidence-based approach has yielded some of the most remarkable stories in Australian art. This lecture will discuss the examination and conservation of iconic works from the Australian Impressionist movement by Tom Roberts, Arthur Streeton and Frederick McCubbin.Michael Varcoe-Cocks is the Associate Director of Conservation at the National Gallery of Victoria where he has worked for twenty-five years. His Conservation practice has principally focused on collection-based research and the accompanying treatment of works produced between 1850 and 1950.
