'Williamane’ style and the use of dynastic labels in the classification of colonial architecture
journal contribution
posted on 2024-01-25, 06:16 authored by E RatcliffIt is argued the term ‘Williamane’, as applied to an architectural style that emerged in the time of transition between the Georgian and Victorian periods in Britain and its colonies commonly referred to as the ‘Regency’, has particular validity and usefulness in the historiography of colonial architecture in Australia, notably when applied to some Italianate designs by James Blackburn and some of his contemporaries in Tasmania and other colonies. It is suggested that the use of the term might reasonably be extended to another contemporaneous style that is ‘Pointed’, but neither ‘Gothick’ nor ‘Victorian Gothic’.
