Hardback. Zeny Edwards, Writelight Pty Ltd. JOHN SULMAN was a prodigy of his generation. Born in England, the architectural and ecclesiastical foundations of his life are of great value to reflect upon when looking at his transformation from Victorian English architect to visionary Australian statesman.A man of tenacity and purpose, Sulman was at the forefront of the movement for an Australian 'style' of architecture. As a town planner, he was one of Australia's great social reformers, and across a range of prestigious and influential positions in public life, he outshone the lives and careers of many other English architects who journeyed to Australia in the nineteenth century.Driven by ambition, he became the quintessential polymath - architect, artist, lecturer, educator, writer, polemicist, environmentalist, philanthropist, and patron of the arts. John Sulman deserves a special place in Australian history for the outstanding and influential role he played in the development of the country's cultural identity.The legacy that he bequeathed Australia is multi-faceted and maintains its momentum through the twenty-first century. Hardback.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The work of Melocco Bros is woven into Australias architectural heritage. Through mosaic, terrazzo, sgraffito, and scagliola, the brothers Peter, Antonio, and Galliano transformed their adopted city after migrating from northern Italy to Sydney in 1908. With talent and determination, they established a business that elevated architecture to art.Their craftsmanship graces landmarks such as Central Station's mosaic floor, the marble-clad David Jones, and the gleaming columns of the Commonwealth Bank in Martin Place. Sydneysiders have marvelled at the Tasman Map in the Mitchell Library, reflected on sacrifice in the Anzac Memorial in Hyde Park, quietly contemplated the crypt beneath St Marys Cathedral, and been entertained amidst the opulent interiors of the State Theatre.By the 1960s, ninety per cent of the marble, scagliola, and terrazzo work in Sydneys public buildings had been created by Melocco Bros. Yet their contributions remained underappreciated. In Painting with Stone, architectural historian Zeny Edwards celebrates the brothers' legacy, revealing their innovation and artistry. Through their mastery, inanimate stone became a medium of storytelling, embedding the Melocco Bros' names in Australias architectural history.
