Frieze, by Mr P W Johnson

"In the samples of Decorative Art left to us by the late Mr Parnell Johnson, Lecture in Industrial Art at the Sydney Technical College, the Waratah figures largely - in fact more so than any other flower.

"His frieze looks particularly well when seen in colour and is designed with much taste and artistic feeling."

From: R.T.Baker (1915) 'The Australian Flora in Applied Art, Part 1, The Waratah', Sydney.
