"This book examines the extraordinary life of George Collingridge de Tourcey, a
landscape painter of the late nineteenth century, just ahead of the Australian
impressionists. When he emigrated from France to Australia he grew passionate
about the possibilities of his new country, and worked tirelessly to contribute
to it - not least for his "Discovery of Australia" (1895), in which on the
evidence of ancient maps he argued controversially for Portuguese and Hispanic
pre-discovery of Australia."
