Specialist note

'... one of the artist's happiest qualities is the way in which he makes a landscape sparkle with light. ... Again and again one comes across some subtle atmospheric effect which, without obtruding itself too dramatically, gives a painting charm.' ('Art Exhibition, Mr. James R. Jackson', The Sydney Morning Herald, 9 June 1937, p.8)
