About One Of The Falls On The Apsley
By the time Conrad Martens visited the falls in 1852, they were a renowned sight. Martens produced three different paintings of falls on the Apsley during the following two decades. A detailed pencil study, The Apsley at Waterloo, on which the Melbourne view was based, shows that the dramatic rock formations are the real focus of the work. Martens's interest in geology was of long standing. A South American sketchbook by him exists containing views of mountains, valleys and coastal profiles taken in 1834 while he was on board the survey ship the Beagle, and it is recorded that he had borrowed Charles Lyell's Principles of Geology from Charles Darwin before the voyage began About the Posters
