Gowrie Waterhouse

Camellia 'EG Waterhouse' was bred by Waterhouse in 1946 in Gordon, New South Wales

Eben Gowrie Waterhouse OBE CMG (* 29. April 1881 in Sydney , Australia ; † 17th August 1977 in Killara ) an Australian was a teacher and a language teacher, German studies and horticultural and plant breeders , the internationally known through his involvement with camellias gained.

Surname

"Gowrie" is a Scottish name (originally probably the name of a region in today's Perthshire , Gaelic : Gobharaidh); Just a short form of the Hebrew name Ebenezer (German stone of help).

Life

youth

Eben Gowrie Waterhouse (Gowrie to his friends) was born in Sydney on April 29, 1881. He was the second of three sons of Gustavus John Waterhouse and his wife Mary Jane Vickery, both of whom were born in Australia. His two grandfathers were English , one grandmother Scottish , the other German . He attributed his lifelong love of the German language to his German grandmother . His older brother Gustavus Athol ("Athol"; 1877–1950) became a well-known entomologist and published the first comprehensive catalog of Australian butterflies. His younger brother Leslie Vickery (Les) Waterhouse (1886-1945) became an influential mining engineer. Even as a young man, Gowrie developed a great love for plants, especially the local ones, in the course of extensive hikes (bushwalker).

With his brothers, Waterhouse was educated at the Sydney Grammar School and the University of Sydney . He earned a BA in French , German and Italian between 1900 and 1903 and graduated in first class honors; he also received the MacCallum Prize for English in 1901 and an MA in 1919.

Languages ​​and culture

After four years as a teacher at King's School Parramatta and two years abroad at the University of Leipzig , where he studied languages ​​and phonetics , Waterhouse returned to teach foreign languages ​​at the Sydney Grammar and implemented his system ("direct method") des Foreign language learning a. The method is that the language is taught in the conversation, with pronunciation training first. The associated grammatical structures followed later. His method was so successful that he was soon accepted as a staff member at the Sydney Teachers' Training College . From there his students spread the method to schools in New South Wales . Then in 1926 he was Associate Professor of German at the University of Sydney and from 1938 to 1946 Professor of German and Comparative Literature . From 1920 he was involved in the Goethe Society , the Alliance française and the Dante Alighieri Art and Literary Society . He gave up his chair in 1946, but remained Honorary Curator of the University Grounds until 1949.

Waterhouse taught that everyone should seek and apply their individual genius and that the highest form of this expression can be found in literature and art. For him, the most outstanding example of such a genius was Goethe . When Waterhouse describes its own landscaping and gardening as an art, it also implies that the expression of Waterhouse's individual genius is to be found in its landscaping. The pinnacle of his career as a German philologist was a lecture he gave in 1932 in the Great Hall of the University of Sydney on the centenary of Goethe's death.

In the 1930s he supported the League of Nations at the university and beyond. He suggested establishing a Club of International Culture in Sydney to reduce misunderstandings between cultures and promote richer cultural development in Australia itself. He shared these goals with his English friend Sir Henry Price, co-founder of the Royal Institute of International Affairs , who was also a camellia enthusiast. Waterhouse toured Europe again and shortly after the Röhm Putsch (Night of the Long Knives), his reputation and influence gave him the opportunity to conduct interviews with Hitler and Mussolini . His insights were widespread: he experienced Hitler in personal conversation as idealistic, fanatical and dramatic, but unsound; In contrast, Mussolini was more statesmanlike. He considered Joseph Goebbels dangerous and cunning.

At the age of 80, Waterhouse taught himself Japanese in order to “talk camellias” with the Japanese.

marriage

On October 1, 1912, Waterhouse married Janet Frew Kellie , a Scottish woman whom he had met while studying languages ​​in Paris in 1907. The couple had four children: Gordon Gowrie Waterhouse (1913–1986) became a gardening specialist who, together with his father, founded Camellia Grove Nursery in St Ives in 1939 . Douglas Frew Waterhouse (1916-2000) became a noted entomologist at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO). Evan Wilson Waterhouse (1919–1970) founded Bellbird Books . Ian Kellie Waterhouse (1921–2013) became Founding Professor of Psychology at Macquarie University .

Eryldene

Garden Studio by Eryldene (camellias on the right).

Between 1913 and 1936, Waterhouse built a 1/2 acre home and garden at 17 McIntosh Street, Gordon . He named it Eryldene , after his wife's birthplace in Scotland. The Waterhouses moved in with their son Gordon in 1914. The garden was ultimately doubled; In 1921 the property that belonged to the street at the back was acquired. The house, the "open-air rooms" of the garden and a large part of the garden buildings were designed and built by William Hardy Wilson in a style of the Georgian Colonial Revival based on models from Sydney and Hobart , as well as Indian bungalows of the same era. The house and garden were seen as a unit in the tradition of the Arts and Crafts Movement , even if the house was done in a different style. The garden is more symmetrical and formal than the corresponding Arts and Crafts gardens. By extending the axes of the house, the formal garden spaces were laid out against a backdrop of wild eucalyptus . These formal spaces have been furnished with waterhouses semi-formal plantings. Waterhouse explained this in an article in The Home in 1923. Eryldene became the benchmark for landscaping in Sydney in the first half of the 20th century. (a touchstone for the Sydney gardens of the first half of the twentieth century.)

In the interwar period, Waterhouse became a leading arbiter in Sydney on taste and house-and-garden living , and its garden conception is still defining the design of gardens in the Sydney North Shore area and parts of Melbourne .

Waterhouse believed that bushes, especially camellias, conveyed "great personality" in a garden, an element that had previously been neglected in Australia. Ultimately, he planted more than 700 varieties of camellia in his garden - the largest private collection in Sydney - which completely changed the original character of the garden. At the same time, enormous residential areas with houses and gardens were emerging in the North Shore area and Eryldene and its plantings were copied all over Sydney and featured in numerous issues of The Home until the magazine shifted its focus and in the 1930s it was more Spanish “Cloisters ”(Monasteries) and“ Modernist Sundecks ”. Almost a century later, in the suburbs of Gordon , Killara , Pymble and Turramurra , extraordinary displays of camellias of every shape can be admired between May and August, just like in the suburbs of Melbourne Ivanhoe and Heidelberg .

Eryldene was between the two wars a popular meeting place for leaders in opinion and taste, especially for those who were in touch with the magazine The Home of Sydney Ure Smith : William Hardy Wilson , Alfred and Jocelyn Brown , Adrian Feint , Paul Jones , Harold Cazneaux , John Moore and Leslie Wilkinson. Woodhouse was a friend of the artists Lionel Lindsay , George Washington Lambert, and Thea Proctor . State Governor Alexander Hore-Ruthven, 1st Earl of Gowrie and Lady Gowrie also belonged to his circle of friends . In addition, linguists from the university, notably Christopher Brennan , were among the circle of visitors whom Waterhouse valued as a great poet.

Landscape and Garden (garden architecture)

Waterhouse was also one of the protagonists in the 1920s and 1930s who helped develop gardening as an art form and way of life. His attitude always combines scholarly internationalism with unshakable aestheticism. In The Home 1926 he published the article Gardening as an Interpretative Art, which was illustrated with photos from his own garden in Cazneaux. His reasoning appeared again refined and in greater detail in Domestic Gardening as an Art 1943. Annual flowers and perennials were therefore not sufficient to mark a garden as a work of art. Texture and shape, not just color alone, should support the symphonic repetition and variation of the garden elements. Garden spaces formed by walls and hedges should be complemented with "furniture" made of potted plants and geometric bushes - Juniper , Hydrangea and Camellia. Larger pieces of "furniture" were formed by classic or oriental temples at the end of sandstone paths. The “floor covering” of the garden rooms was a well-tended lawn. Its role in structuring the garden space should not be destroyed by island beds, but on the contrary emphasized by well-planted edges. But form was only one of many criteria. For example, Waterhouse sought advice to ensure that butterflies in appropriate colors were lured into the respective garden areas.

Roses, the definitive plants of the Arts and Crafts Movement , were badly devalued as “too scraggy” (too dry) for a waterhouse design. In 1943 the only rose variety he recommended for Sydney was the 'Cramoisi Supérieur' due to its combination of bright colors and firm, round shape. The black poplar (Populus nigra, "Lombardy poplar"), on the other hand, had all the properties that Waterhouse valued in terms of shape, texture, color and sound. As at the beginning in Eryldene, many of his landscape architectures were given formal rows of poplar trees - which were often planted closely as a hedge. Such rows of poplar trees became ubiquitous in Australia's temperate climates during his lifetime, but have almost completely disappeared since then.

In 1931 Waterhouse dreamed of a huge garden of 300 or 400 acres (161 hectares) in which colors and shapes would take over the function of tone groups in music. The garden should not only be an earthly paradise , but also a total work of art in supra- Wagnerian dimensions. The Sydney Harbor Bridge (opened in 1932) was to be designed according to the landscape architecture. In order to promote such garden art, he urged the University of Sydney to establish a professorship in Landscape and Domestic Gardening . He looked forward to the day when this School of Landscape Architecture would be established where people could get inspiration and effective training for the work that was currently being done by amateurs. It was a dream for the future, but he fought to make it happen. In this and other ways he was instrumental in establishing the landscape architecture profession in Australia.

Overemphasis on Cottage Gardens had supplanted the "dignity and personality" of trees, especially native Australian trees. In a design for the McMaster Building of the University of Sydney, he drew a row of poplars opposite the facade, which should be equal in height and width and should be closed on one end by five coral trees (Erythrina crista-galli, Coral trees) with blossoms, whose color should match the color of the brick. Waterhouse also left the beloved and iconic jacaranda tree (Jacaranda mimosifolia) in the University of Sydney Quadrangle .

With the encouragement of the University's Vice Chancellor, Waterhouse designed and planted the university grounds from 1925 to 1949. He also designed the gardens around the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and designed for the University of New England . When the State Governor moved to Canberra as Governor-General of Australia, Waterhouse spent a lot of time in Government House (Canberra) (Yarralumla) and looked after the garden design by Lady Gowrie. Sixteen years later he dedicated a camellia to her, one of his "eight or nine really good varieties".

His last book described the use of camellias in ikebana , where Waterhouse's wife, Janet, was a well-known expert.

In the west, interest in camellias as luxury flowers had wedded between 1840 and 1890. It had since dwindled in favor of orchids. From 1914 onwards, Waterhouse's writings and cultivations brought about a renaissance. Between 1930 and 1960 camellias became fashionable again (even in Japan), this time as forest trees in warm climates. Accordingly, his influence made itself felt for many years before Sachverell Sitwell published his book Old Fashioned Flowers in 1936 .

Waterhouse early coined the opinion that the rich and well-watered soils of the North Shore are ideal for plants from forest clearings, especially Japanese azaleas and camellias. However, the names of the varieties available were profoundly mixed up, and the best ventures to breed and raise them were poorly thought out. In 1952, Waterhouse and four other enthusiasts founded the Australian Camellia Research Society . In 1958 it had 320 members. Waterhouse became one of the world's leading scholars in the field of camellias. The International Camellia Society , of which he became first president in 1962, has over 150 records of camellias identified, bred, discovered, renamed, or reclassified by Waterhouse. These include camellias that were originally imported or bred by Sir William Macarthur of Camden Park from 1820 to 1861 in colonial New South Wales. The tremendous work of streamlining the names of camellias in Australia was accomplished by Waterhouse along with AW Jessep of Melbourne Botanic Gardens and Walter Hazelwood of Hazelwoods' Nursery outside Sydney.

In 1970 Waterhouse brought together a "National Collection" of camellias on two hectares of land in Sutherland Shire , near Caringbah , Sydney. The collection was renamed EG Waterhouse National Camellia Gardens after his death . It includes more than 450 cultivars and species.

The breeding of camellias led to the discovery of numerous natural seedlings and varieties. In addition, Waterhouse made numerous varieties known and bred new crosses. The first of these was 'Plantation Pink' in 1942. Many of these varieties are still commercially available.

collection

Waterhouse began collecting art in the 1920s. He was a discerning collector of pieces from China, Persia and Europe. In particular, he collected Persian carpets and vessels as well as Chinese scrolls, porcelain, roof tiles and paintings. The Tang Dynasty was his favorite period. Contemporary interiors by Eryldene feature Chinese art and watercolor paintings of camellias on the walls. Waterhouse was Trustee of the Art Gallery of New South Wales from 1938 to 1962 , the last two years as President.

Honors

1933 Waterhouse was founded by King Victor Emmanuel III. of Italy for his contribution to Italian culture abroad for the Knights defeated. In 1957, Waterhouse received the Goethe Medal for his work as a Germanist as “Full Professor and Head of the German Department, University of Sydney” .

In 1962, the year the International Camellia Society was founded, he was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for his service to the community. The Royal Horticultural Society awarded him their Veitch Memorial Medal in 1966 for services in the field of horticulture. In 1976 he was awarded the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) for services in the field of horticulture.

death

Waterhouse died in Killara in August 1977 at the age of 96. Janet had died in 1973 at the age of 88. The Ku-ring-gai Council purchased his house and land from the Waterhouse family for $ 150,000, and under the council's aegis, the Eryldene Trust took ownership in 1981.
