EDITORS COMMENTS
This perspective design for the Victorian War Memorial, located in Melbourne, Australia, dates back to circa 1924. Designed by the esteemed architect, William Lucas, this design placed second in a competition for the creation of the memorial, ultimately losing out to another submission. The design showcases a grand and imposing structure, with a distinctive, stepped surrounding area that expands outwards, inviting reflection and contemplation. The memorial, set against a backdrop of lush greenery and clear blue skies, exudes a sense of solemnity and reverence. The distant view of the structure in this design offers a unique perspective, allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate details of the architecture and the thoughtful integration of the memorial into its natural surroundings. Despite not being selected for implementation, this design remains a significant historical artifact, providing valuable insights into the architectural vision and artistic sensibilities of its time. The March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online preserves this precious piece of history, allowing us to explore and learn from the rich architectural heritage of the past.
