Title A name given to the resource In Springtime (Im Fruhling) Subject The topic of the resource Arnold BÃ¶cklin (1827-1901), art, beauty, Felton Bequest, feminine ideal, landscape, medieval dress, medieval theme, music, musical instrument, naturalism, nature, nostalgia, Renaissance art, Renaissance beauty, seasons, spring, springtime, VIC, Victoria Description An account of the resource 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).

The church was built in Gothic Revival style in 1859 (the first service was in January 1860) and was designed by architect William Henry Clayton (1823-1877). It was named after Thomas Chalmers, the founder of the Free Church movement in Scotland following the 1843 Great Disruption of the Church of Scotland. His followers were known as Free Kirkers. The church became a Presbyterian church in 1896 and was deconsecrated in 1981 and it can now be hired as a hall. This photograph shows face masks around the bell tower. Despite the flamboyantly Gothic style of the tower, the masks may be inspired by similar ones from the Classical period, and are quite different from the gargoyles which one would expect to find on a Gothic church.

Titled â€˜The Feigned Death of Julietâ€™ it depicts a scene from William Shakespeareâ€™s tragedy 'Romeo and Juliet'. In Act IV Scene V of the play, Count Paris arrives at the Capulet house with Friar Laurence to claim Juliet as his bride. However, instead of finding her ready to proceed to the church to be wed, he discovers Juliet seemingly lifeless in her chamber. In Leightonâ€™s painting, Juliet is shown lying on a bed surrounded by her mother, her nurse, her father and Count Paris. Friar Laurence hovers in the corner and a band of musicians congregate by the open door with their instruments. Although the play was written in the 1590s, it is set in Verona in an earlier (but unspecified) period. The characters in the painting are all depicted wearing styles of dress typical of the High Middle Ages.

The window was donated by John Harris Esq., at a cost of Â£120 in c.1889 (Calendar of the University of Sydney for the year 1893, Sydney, W. E. Smith, 1893, p.375) It features a triad of classical physicians - Galen, Hippocrates, and Aretaeus of Cappadocia - each of whom had a profound influence on medical thought in the medieval and Renaissance periods and the development of medicine in general. The figures are separately surmounted and framed by late fourteenth to early fifteenth century canopies within individuated lights. Such figuration is very much in keeping with the customary practice of presenting a series of exemplary figures from history for edification and emulation. The Anderson Stuart Building, formerly known as â€˜The old medical schoolâ€™ is used for the teaching of anatomy. It also boasts a statue of Asklepios, the God of medicine and healing, and busts of several eminent physicians and surgeons. The Faculty of Medicine at Sydney University is the oldest in the country.

The original church was designed by David Lambe and built by convict labour in 1824-5. The clock and bell tower with an octagonal turret were added in 1830. This part of the church, in the Georgian Gothic style, is all that remains of the original exterior. From 1902 extensive alterations were made under the direction of architect Alexander North (1858-1945), resulting in the red brick building with large rose window and elaborate arched doorway. Despite the obvious contrast in the two sections of the building, both are in Gothic style and feature pointed-arched windows, buttresses, and blind arcading.

The Former Magistrateâ€™s Court Building is a three-storey building of French Romanesque design. As is common of neo-romanesque or Norman Revival architecture, the entrance is strongly modelled; the already large doorway is amplified by archivolts, in this case a band of five semi-circular arches, column jambs and decorative hood moulding. The Former Magistrateâ€™s Court building was designed by Department of Public Works architect George H B Austin and built by the Swanson Brothers. It replaced a two-storey brick building on the site that previously housed the Supreme Court and then the Court of Petty Sessions. Construction of the new building began in 1911 and was completed in 1914. The Court of Petty Sessions, later renamed the Melbourne Magistrateâ€™s court, operated from the building from 1914 until 1995. It is now owned by the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) and is used for lectures.
