Also featured on this page: Important visitors at the Children’s Hospital and The Nurses’ Christmas. Large scale prints of all three images feature below. Discovering this page via the digitised newspapers on Trove was a crucial step in unlocking the provenance of the slides. Published: The Age 26 December 1933, page 9 (1933, December 26). The Age (Melbourne, Vic. : 1854 - 1954), p. 9. Retrieved October 10, 2025, from http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-page19054271 Featured in "Newsworthy : Melbourne in photographs 1933-1936" exhibition held at East Melbourne Library from October to December 2023. The Newsworthy exhibition developed out of a local history digitisation project. Fifty images from a collection of 240 glass plate negatives were selected and printed at large scale for public display at East Melbourne Library. The exhibition was very well-received. The McKenzie Collection of glass plate negatives unlocks glimpses of our city not seen for almost 100 years. In the 1990s, renowned architectural photographer Ian McKenzie (1939-2014) picked up 240 glass plate negatives at a local market. Believed to be from a Victorian news archive, they dated back to the 1930s. The slides lay dormant in a dusty garage until 2020 when Ian’s wife Louise decided it was time to bring them back into the light. Louise McKenzie, and two other history-lovers, Ernie Ward and Fiona Collyer, signed up as City of Melbourne volunteers and joined forces with City of Melbourne Libraries Community Heritage Team Leader, Linda Longley and Local History Librarian, Fiona Campbell. Together, the project team has devoted more than three years to unlocking the mysteries of the collection. What began as a simple digitization exercise swiftly morphed into a wild journey of discovery and kismet. Intensive detective sessions and discussions with fellow historical networks ensued, gradually unearthing our photojournalistic history and technologies, the merits of volunteer work, and astonishing stories from 1930s Victoria. From the domestic to the dramatic, the celebratory to the solemn, these fascinating images capture a fleeting yet significant period in Interwar, Depression-era Melbourne. Above all, the McKenzie Collection project has brought about a powerful and sustained sense of engagement, connection and celebration between people across decades and places.the age newspaper, photography, 1930-1939, christmas -

Each of their three daughters grew up to be involved in the arts: Alma as a painter; Carmen Irene (1906-1993) as a short story writer, poet and teacher of dancing; and Sylvia (also Silvia) Lyla Alice (1911-1992) as a composer and cellist. The first art lessons Alma Figuerola received were with Oscar Binder. Later she attended the art school established by the Melbourne 'tonalist' [Duncan] Max Meldrum (1875-1955). She graduated from his school in 1920, participating in her first group exhibition in the same year. Solo exhibitions of her work were to be held in 1933 at the Meldrum Gallery in Elizabeth Street, in 1937 and 1945 at the Athenaeum Gallery at 188 Collins Street, and in 1951 at Georges Gallery in Collins Street. Throughout her extensive career she participated in group exhibitions, usually with artists of the Meldrum School, and as a member of the Twenty Melbourne Painters, of which she was invited to become an associate in 1935. In 1953, her portrait of Professor ES Hills was entered in the Archibald Prize Competition of the Art Gallery of New South Wales. A resident of Kew from the 1930s - 51 Studley Park Road, often with her mother, her sister Carmen, or both - from c.1942 until her death she lived at 'D’Estaville', 7 Barry Street. From the late 1930s she is recorded as actively contributing to the arts at a local level. In 1939 and 1940 she participated in art exhibitions at the Hawthorn Municipal Library organised by Jessie Carbines. From 1944 to 1951 she co-organised successive Kew Arts Festivals, initially in the Presbyterian Church Hall in Highbury Grove and later at the Recreation Hall in Wellington Street. A foundation member of the Kew Historical Society in 1958, Alma Figuerola remained an active member of the Society until her death on 8 December 1970. She predeceased her two sisters who both died in the 1990s and who are buried at Andersons' Creek Cemetery in Warrandyte.Part of a photographic series which is historically and aesthetically significant. The photographs record the interiors and exteriors of D'Estaville, an historic Kew mansion in the 1960s, and also its owner, Alma Figuerola, a pupil of Max Meldrum, and a notable Melbourne artist who lived in Kew.Alma Figuerola in her drawing room at D'Estaville, Barry Street, Kew, holding her pet dog while gazing into the fireplace.
