100th anniversary of 'Old Colonial Architecture'

Next date: Monday, 28 October 2024 | 07:00 PM to Thursday, 31 October 2024 | 05:00 PM

To mark the 100th anniversary of the publication of Hardy Wilson's book, Old Colonial Architecture in New South Wales and Tasmania, the University of Sydney is hosting an exhibition in the Fisher Library. This is a free event and all are welcome. Click here for more information.

In 1913, Eben Gowrie Waterhouse chose architect William Hardy Wilson to design Eryldene as he was impressed with the architect's previous work - particularly his aesthetic sense and his interest in shadow and textures.

As a part of this celebration, there are also two other free events this week that may be of interest:

• Public Lecture: Julie Willis, The Trouble with Hardy Wilson.
• Symposium: Hardy Wilson and the Colonial Imagination.

Enjoy these celebrations of the work of one of the most visionary architects of the 20th century and the creator of Eryldene.
