This pictorial and descriptive profile of the artistic artifacts housed in the University of Melbourne includes pieces ranging from Greek antiquity to the European old masters. Information is provided on costumes designed by Percy Grainger, furniture fashioned by Burley Griffin, illuminated manuscripts, and stained glass by Napier Waller. Essays written by staff and students of the university, research findings on new methods of interpretation, and profiles of the different collections and their reflection of the institutional values of the university offer a glimpse into Australia's distinct cultural heritage.
