Agricultural Society of NSW 1873: Victorian section – no.56 Miss Mary Bullen, 13 Swanston-street – Monarch of the Glen, after Landseer – price, £20.

Victorian Academy of Arts fifth exhibition 1875: “In this year’s collection, two of the best subjective paintings are Caught at Last by Miss Bullen and Who Fights my Dog Fights Me by Mr Cyrus Mason. Caught at Last represents a hare lying dead at the feet of two dogs. The execution, as far as the dogs are concerned, is excellent, but the hare has far the worst of it, both from the dogs and the artist also. As a whole, however, the production is very good” ( Sydney Mail , 10 July 1875).

Melbourne Intercolonial Exhibition 1875: Bullen, M., Woolton, Northcote: no.3076 Caught at Last ; no.3077 Bellona, Bianca and Black Bess ; no.3078 On the Merri Creek at Woolton .
