About the Artwork
The Old Parliament House in Canberra, completed in 1927, was initially intended as a “provisional” solution for Australia’s government. Dormer’s photograph captures the elegance of this neo-classical structure, with its symmetrical design and expansive lawns, symbolising a pivotal chapter in Australia’s political history. The clear skies and bright flags lend a sense of vitality, while the building’s stately architecture reflects the gravitas of its purpose.
“The Old Parliament House stands as a testament to Australia’s journey as a nation—its timeless façade tells the story of decisions, debates, and the evolving identity of a people.” Jaime Dormer

Framing the Image
Frame Details:
The photograph is presented in an elegant, contemporary frame designed to elevate and preserve the artwork. It is encased in a prestige white Majorca moulding, complemented by clarity UV70 glass to ensure protection against light exposure. The use of double acid-free white matting, accented by a Dawsons hand-made dark oaka linen and a silver fillet, provides a refined contrast that enhances the photograph’s vivid colors and depth.
The image is printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, a museum-quality 100% cotton paper that brings out the photograph's rich tones and details. To protect and maintain the integrity of the print, three coatings of Hahnemühle protective surface spray have been meticulously applied in a crosshatch pattern.
Dimensions:
- Image Size: 20"x30" (50x76cm)
- Frame Size: 35"x45" (89x114cm)
