                  <text>This Collection illustrates how medievalism has always existed â€˜in plain viewâ€™ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australiaâ€™s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australiaâ€™s medievalist political and religious institutions and rituals, ii) its architecture, and iii) its civic environment. In this Collection are items relating to all three of these key areas. Firstly, you will find items that point to the medieval influences and inflections that still permeate and influence our political, legal and religious institutions and traditions. Secondly, you will find numerous examples of neo-gothic and neo-romanesque architecture, and some cases where architectural features are known to have been modelled on specific medieval buildings. Thirdly, you will find items relating to the ways in which medievalism is incorporated into our civic environments and expressed through statues, monuments and war memorials.</text>

                <text>This painting by Sydney artist Grace Cossington Smith derives its title,&lt;em&gt;'Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question'&lt;/em&gt;, from Matthew, Chapter xxii, verse 35. Although better known for her paintings of domestic interiors, this is one of two biblical works Cossington Smith painted for entry into the newly established Blake Prize for Religious Art in the early 1950s. Influenced generally by Renaissance artists such as Giotto, whose paintings she had seen in Italy, Cossington Smith used Masaccio&amp;rsquo;s '&lt;em&gt;Tribute Money'&lt;/em&gt; (from the Carmine in Florence) in particular as a model for this painting (see Bruce James, &lt;em&gt;Grace Cossington Smith&lt;/em&gt;, Roseville, Craftsman House, 1990, p.135). It featured alongside a number of Cossington Smith&amp;rsquo;s other works as part of an exhibition titled &lt;em&gt;Grace Cossington Smith: A Retrospective Exhibition&lt;/em&gt; at the National Gallery of Australia in 2005.</text>

                <text>&lt;span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;This work by Australian artist Rupert Bunny was acquired by the Art Gallery of South Australia in 1996. 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 &amp;ldquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;a return to the detailed, brightly coloured and symbolically rich art of the early Italian Renaissance&amp;rdquo; (See &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;the accompanying information pages on the Art Gallery of South Australia&amp;rsquo;s website at: &lt;a href="http://www.artgallery.sa.gov.au/TLF/964p25/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0000ff;"&gt;http://www.artgallery.sa.gov.au/TLF/964p25/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;). &lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This Collection illustrates how medievalism has always existed â€˜in plain viewâ€™ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australiaâ€™s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australiaâ€™s medievalist political and religious institutions and rituals, ii) its architecture, and iii) its civic environment. In this Collection are items relating to all three of these key areas. Firstly, you will find items that point to the medieval influences and inflections that still permeate and influence our political, legal and religious institutions and traditions. Secondly, you will find numerous examples of neo-gothic and neo-romanesque architecture, and some cases where architectural features are known to have been modelled on specific medieval buildings. Thirdly, you will find items relating to the ways in which medievalism is incorporated into our civic environments and expressed through statues, monuments and war memorials.</text>

                <text>This work by Swiss-born artist Arnold BÃ¶cklin was acquired by the National Gallery of Victoria with funds from the Felton Bequest in 1977. The painting depicts two beautiful â€˜otherworldlyâ€™ female figures in flowing, colourful dresses walking in an idyllic green landscape. Although the dresses are of a romanticised medieval style, the naturalism with which the landscape is rendered is a typically nineteenth-century artistic style. â€œBy bringing a modern sensibility to a late medieval sceneâ€, Ted Gott et al have suggested, â€œthe artist has brilliantly linked to his contemporary world the fifteenth-century ideal of beautyâ€ (19th Century Painting and Sculpture in the International Collections of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, National Gallery of Victoria, 2003, p.63). </text>
