Two works by Christopher Brennan reproduced in manuscript facsimile, previously never published. Brennan, working at the NSW public library and under the influence of his favourite poet: Mallarme, produced the works as a gesture of defiance to his friends, critics and the unimpressed Australian public who wanted poetry to be more 'Australian'. Produced in 1897, they represent a unique flowering of European Avant-garde art in colonial Australia. Following the example of Mallarme, the works attempt a synthesis of the arts, especially poetry, music and graphic design. They are fine examples of Brennan's wit and ingenuity and of his exquisite handwriting. Introduced by Axel Clark. .
