According to Dr Wright, the article reports, the use of vestments was deliberately discarded by the Anglican Church at the reformation along with other aspects of medieval theology, and the “revival” of vestments equated to “a deliberate reintroduction of medieval usage”. He therefore would not sanction the use of vestments until the canon law was altered to make the practice legal. John Charles Wright was appointed Archbishop of Sydney in 1909. He was known for his adherence to laws of the Church, and for his insistence that his role was to administer the existing laws, not devise new ones. He was particularly opposed to the use of the chasuble by Anglican clergy, and made clergy within his diocese agree not to wear them. See Stephen E. Judd, “Wright, John Charles (1861-1933)”, Australian Dictionary of Biography, Volume 12, Melbourne University Press, 1990, pp. 585-586.

St John the Evangelist is a neo-gothic Church located in the centre of Fremantle. It was designed by W. Smith and constructed from limestone by J. J. Harwood and Son. The church was consecrated in 1882 and an older church that had served the Anglican congregation in Fremantle since 1843 was demolished. A number of the church’s gothic features are visible in the photograph, including its rose window, steep gable, entry porch, lancet windows and stone buttresses. A bell turret was added to the church in c.1906 and is also just visible above the trees.

The statue, which depicts St George astride his horse, armed with a large spear and inflicting the death blow on a &ldquo;very substantial reptile, neither a griffon nor a wyvern, but partaking strongly of the nature of an iguana&rdquo;, was displayed in the Great Hall during the 1888 International Exhibition in Melbourne. The article&rsquo;s praise for this work stands in contradiction to former criticisms of the sculpture from the likes of Edmund Grosse for lacking &lsquo;largeness&rsquo; and for being overly poetic and idealised (See Andrew Lynch, &ldquo;&lsquo;Thingless names&rsquo;? The St George Legend in Australia&rdquo;, The La Trobe Journal, vol.81, Autumn 2008, pp.40-52: <a href="http://www3.slv.vic.gov.au/latrobejournal/issue/latrobe-81/t1-g-t4.html" target="_blank">http://www3.slv.vic.gov.au/latrobejournal/issue/latrobe-81/t1-g-t4.html</a>). The author of the article suggests that although &ldquo;strict probabilities&rdquo; had not been observed, the sculpture was to be commended for its aesthetically pleasing depiction of a combat between good and evil.<br /> Boehm&rsquo;s statue of St George and the Dragon was purchased by the State Library of Victoria for the sum of &pound;1000 following the Exhibition. It was installed at the entrance to the library in 1889 where, after some slight repositioning to accommodate Fr&eacute;miet&rsquo;s Jeanne d&rsquo;Arc in 1907, it still stands.

The statue is the work of Viennese-born sculptor Joseph Edgar Boehm. It was purchased by the State Library of Victoria for the sum of &pound;1000 following the Centennial International Exhibition in 1888, and was installed at the entrance to the library in 1889. With the exception of some repositioning to accommodate Fr&eacute;miet&rsquo;s Jeanne d&rsquo;Arc statue in 1907, this is where it still stands. The Boehm statue depicts St George, sitting astride his horse wearing a cape and a helmet bearing the distinctive St George cross, in the action of inflicting the dragon&rsquo;s deathblow by means of a large spear. The legend of St George slaying the dragon is Eastern in origin. It is thought to have been brought back to England by crusaders and was popularised and incorporated into hagiographies of St George in the medieval period in works such as Vincent of Beauvais&rsquo; Speculum Historiale and Jacobus de Voragine&rsquo;s Golden Legend (c.1260). As with most early Australian images of St George and the Dragon, the statue features the knight and dragon fused in combat, and there is no sign of the maiden who was being saved in the original tale. For more on the St George legend in Australia, see Andrew Lynch, &ldquo;&lsquo;Thingless names&rsquo;? The St George Legend in Australia&rdquo;, The La Trobe Journal, vol.81, Autumn 2008, pp.40-52: http://www3.slv.vic.gov.au/latrobejournal/issue/latrobe-81/t1-g-t4.html).
