Title A name given to the resource ‘The Seasons window,’ Mandeville Hall, Toorak Subject The topic of the resource autumn, country, cupid, David Relph Drape, Diana, Ferguson & Urie, foliage, frieze, harvest, Joseph Clarke, landscape, nature, nostalgia, Romanesque, Saint George, seasons, spring, St George, stained glass, stairwell, summer, Toorak, VIC, Victoria, window, winter Description An account of the resource This staircase ‘Seasons’ window at Mandeville Hall in Toorak was designed by David Relph Drape and created by Ferguson & Urie for the original owner, millionaire Joseph Clarke, in 1877. The circular medallions in the centre of the window depict scenes of the four different seasons, beginning with winter. The idyllic country scenes that fill the main medallions are of typically English views, and doubtless served, as Beverley Sherry suggests, as “persuasive [and ‘nostalgic’] reminders of ‘home’” (Australia’s Historic Stained Glass, Sydney, Murray Child, 1991, p.39). The figures to the left and right of the medallions also represent the four seasons, and feature banners identifying which season they represent. Clarke’s initials appear on the central lower border flanked by curved floral motifs that were probably adapted from classical Roman frieze work. There is also a star-studded cross of St George at each of the corners. In this way, classical Rome, medievalism, and British imperialism appear as natural offshoots of the other. This decorative and largely opaque window is intricately patterned with entwined foliage, and dominated by figural seasonal vignettes. It is crowned by a semi-circular top light (another concession to the architectural ‘Romanesque’ or Norman style) containing a reclining Diana, and Cupid holding a bow.

It depicts the religious subject of the Annunciation, when the angel Gabriel descended from heaven to tell Mary that she would conceive the son of God. An angel dressed in white stands with one arm outstretched before the kneeling figure of Mary. The angel holds white lilies, while Mary clutches a white rose and is surrounded by pink roses. The background is dominated by a bold vermillion red curtain and a wall hanging showing Adam and Eve being cast from the Garden of Eden by a sword-wielding angel. This work dates from the 1890s, a time when Bunny was preoccupied with biblical themes. He was influenced by the symbolists of the nineteenth century and also the Pre-Raphaelites, as is evidenced here by &ldquo;</span><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">a return to the detailed, brightly coloured and symbolically rich art of the early Italian Renaissance&rdquo; (See </span><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">the accompanying information pages on the Art Gallery of South Australia&rsquo;s website at: <a href="http://www.artgallery.sa.gov.au/TLF/964p25/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">http://www.artgallery.sa.gov.au/TLF/964p25/</span></a>). </span> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Bunny, Rupert Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Art Gallery of South Australia Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource c. 1896 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Art Gallery of South Australia Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Oil on Canvas, 100.3 x 110.4cm; Hyperlink Adam angel Annunciation art colour curtain Eden Eve Gabriel lilies Mary Pre-Raphaelite religious art Renaissance art rose Rupert Bunny (1864-1947) SA South Australia symbolism vermillion virgin https://ausmed.arts.uwa.edu.au/files/original/1f7eb9ac50340d70fe1c5701f0e2691f.jpg de30c4ca676c9995e3b9381005a2070f Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

St Paul’s is the official Cathedral of the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne. It was built in a Victorian Gothic style to the design of prominent English architect William Butterfield. The foundation stone was laid in 1880 and the Cathedral was consecrated just over a decade later when the initial stage of the building was completed in 1891. Butterfield oversaw the building remotely until 1884, when he resigned following disputes with the Church authorities in Melbourne. The remainder of the construction was supervised by well-known local architect Joseph Reed. Construction of the Cathedral’s three towers and distinctive neo-gothic spires began in 1926. They were designed by Sydney architect John Barr, and are not in keeping with Butterfield’s more modest original plans. Other distinctive architectural features of St Paul’s include its multiple lancet windows, decorative blind tracery, chequered tiling on the wall above the entrance and elaborate stained glass processional doors inside the entrance doorway. The cathedral interior is notable for its horizontally striped pattern, which is based on a design from thirteenth century Siena Cathedral.

Description An account of the resource <span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">This painting by Val Prinsep was gifted to the National Gallery of Victoria in 1934 by A L Prinsep. It depicts a woman, who the title identifies as Jane Shore, crouching under a bridge in an attempt to hide from a group of soldiers looking to arrest her. Shore, whose birth name was actually Elizabeth, is believed to have been Edward IV&rsquo;s royal mistress from approximately 1476 until his death in 1483. Following Edward&rsquo;s death, she was linked by contemporary sources to Thomas Grey, marquess of Dorset, and William, Lord Hastings. Some historians have claimed that she was involved in a Woodville-Hastings plot against Richard (while he was still the Duke of Gloucester and&nbsp;attempting to secure the throne), while others have suggested different, but similarly political, motives for his (mis)treatment of her. Shore was arrested on Richard&rsquo;s command in 1483 and imprisoned, firstly in the tower of London and later in Ludgate prison. She was pardoned and released&nbsp;upon her marriage to&nbsp;the king&rsquo;s solicitor, Thomas Lynom.

The window depicts three well-known medieval writers: Geoffrey Chaucer (l), the jurist John Fortescue (c), and James I of Scotland (r). Each of the three figures is fully &lsquo;canopied,&rsquo; a self-conscious nineteenth-century &lsquo;medievalism&rsquo; that lends an ecclesiastical dignity to the overall composition. The Great Hall at the University of Sydney is functionally a place of assembly, and its appearance is strikingly similar to the choir of a medieval church. The Hall is designed to invoke the ambience, seriousness, and sense of achievement of the great medieval seats-of-learning established at Oxford and Cambridge. The collection of windows gathered within its walls is one of the finest anywhere in Australia, and encompasses a variety of themes, including those of learning, patronage, royalty and corporate endeavour.</p> To view this and other stained glass windows from the Great Hall and Quadrangle, see: <a href="http://sydney.edu.au/senate/Quadrangle_decorative_features_stained_glass.shtml%20" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">http://sydney.edu.au/senate/Quadrangle_decorative_features_stained_glass.shtml </span></a> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource White, David Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Unknown Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource © David White (photo) Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Hyperlink Author canopy education Geoffrey Chaucer (1340-1400) Gothic Revival Great Hall James I of Scotland (1394-1437) John Fortescue (1394-1476) learning literature medieval neo-Gothic New South Wales NSW quadrangle stained glass Sydney The University of Sydney university university buildings window writer
