Charles Conder (1868-1909) A British painter belonging to Impressionism who emigrated to Australia. He worked as a surveyor for his uncle. He undertook frequent business trips to the countryside, so it is not surprising that after studying art, he turned to painting landscapes: Yarra River near Heidelberg < / a>. After some time, he returned to Europe, particularly to Paris, to deepen his knowledge and skills. He got into the Impressionist camp and met Parisian artists, the most famous of which was Henri Toulouse- Lautrec, who captured him in two of his paintings from the Moulin Rouge. With his turbulent lifestyle, he fell ill with syphilis in 1906 and stopped painting. He was also an avid photographer, capturing mostly the Parisian countryside.
