He expressed himself on these matters in various texts throughout his productive years. Not all of these have been available to the critic. This article attempts to make his thinking available to the critic and researcher, especially in terms of applying the tenets of the Grand Manner, as well as abortive aspects of the design, particularly as regards the proposed Temple of Peace and Via Sacra.111182844 bytesapplication/pdfenComplies with rights as specified by Collection Administrator.Milner, Alfred Milner, Viscount, 1854-1925Union BuildingsBlomfield, ReginaldSmuts, Jan Christiaan, 1870-1950Eagle, PiercyLeith, GordonBannermann, Lionel, SirRees-Poole, Vivian SydneyPretoriaWierda, Sytze Wopkes, 1839-1911Wickens, John EdwardTweed, JohnRhodes, Cecil, 1853-1902Meintjes KopSouth African War MemorialDelville WoodFitzpatrick, Percy, Sir, 1862-1931Transvaal ColonyGrand MannerMeintjieskopBaker, Herbert, Sir, 1862-1946Article
