Understanding John Grainger through the prism of an architectural rivalry

Dodd, Andrew (University of Melbourne Library, 2012)

Journal Article

This article discusses the intersections in the careers of two important Australian architects: John H. Grainger (1854-1917) and John James Clark (1838-1915). Their professional paths crossed in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, resulting in a rivalry that spanned 25 years and three colonies. The author speculates on the level of personal antagonism that may or may not have resulted, and on the ultimate effects of these circumstances on Grainger's level of professional achievement.
