Résumé:

Lavish ornamentation, the hallmark of the Victorian era, spilled over to the external details of Victorian houses, notably in cast iron decoration which was often of such delicacy that it has been popularly likened to lace. Here, for the first time, a selection of masterly photographs by Graeme Robertson - one of Australia's leading authorities on cast iron ornamentation - are brought together in one volume.
