 The exhibition held many works by artists from the Heidelberg School and is considered the beginning of the style known as Australian Impressionism.However, Sutherland’s and Southern’s works were not exhibited.There is a continuing debate, highlighted by art historians Juliet Peers and Humphrey McQueen, if the exclusion of Sutherland and Southern was due to gender roles of the time or merely that their work did not fit the curator’s, Elsie Goode, overall vision.
