"In Memorium" consists of 131 smaller poems of varying length. The stanzas are isometric with the rhyme scheme ABBA, a form that has become known as the "In Memorium Stanza". Tennyson wrote this book after he learned that his beloved friend Arthur Henry Hallum had died suddenly and unexpectedly of fever at 22. It was written over the course of 17 years (1833-1849).Front: In Memorium (gold with gold leaf) / Tennyson Also on spine.tennyson, poetry

This etching by British engraver Arthur Willmore was created from Russian born artist Nicholas Chevalier’s original watercolour landscape of Bontharambo, Wangaratta (Chevalier’s watercolour is held in the collection of the National Library of Australia). Chevalier moved to Australia during the Colonial period and is famous for his landscape paintings, which were most commonly commissioned by wealthy landowners or merchants wanting to record their material success. Bontharambo is a historic property located in Wangaratta which was made famous by pastoralist Joseph Docker who took up the Bontharambo run in 1838 and has remained in the family since. The historic homestead on the property was built between 1857-1859 and was designed by architect Thomas Watts.ColonialWangaratta Art Gallery CollectionA rectangular landscape etching of the homes on Bontharambo station printed in black ink on off-white paper.Obverse: N.
