Olveston (house) (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Olveston Historic Home is a substantial house and museum in an inner suburb of Dunedin, New Zealand. The house was designed by Ernest George in the Jacobean style in the early 20th century for the Theomin family. When Dorothy Theomin died in 1966, the house, garden and contents were gifted to the city, and are now open to the public. The house is decorated and furnished much as it was when the family lived there, creating a snapshot of upperclass colonial Edwardian life. The Theomins were avid collectors and their art, furniture, weapons and decorative items can be seen throughout the house.

dbo:abstract Olveston Historic Home is a substantial house and museum in an inner suburb of Dunedin, New Zealand. The house was designed by Ernest George in the Jacobean style in the early 20th century for the Theomin family. When Dorothy Theomin died in 1966, the house, garden and contents were gifted to the city, and are now open to the public. The house is decorated and furnished much as it was when the family lived there, creating a snapshot of upperclass colonial Edwardian life. The Theomins were avid collectors and their art, furniture, weapons and decorative items can be seen throughout the house. Architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner described Olveston as "an extremely interesting and very grand house", while Heritage New Zealand, who have protected it with a Category I registration, regard it as "an outstanding illustration of Jacobean design and one of New Zealand's grandest urban houses". In 2014 it won the TripAdvisor Choice Attraction award, making it the number one tourist destination in New Zealand. The gardens are of national significance. (en) Olveston é uma casa histórica em Dunedin, Nova Zelândia. Foi construída entre 1904 e 1906 para um comerciante rico, David Theomin, que tinha emigrado de uma aldeia no Gloucestershire, de nome Olveston. Construída em estilo jacobino, foi desenhada por Sir Ernest George. Foi equipada com todas as conveniências avaliáveis no século XX, como aquecimento central, um elevador, misturadora, torradeira, etc. Os Theomins eram coleccionadores de arte, cerâmica e mobília. Adquiriram importantes peças japonesas e trabalhos por W. M. Hodgkins, Frances Hodgkins, Alfred Henry O'Keeffe e Frank Brangwyn. A casa e o seu conteúdo foram deixados à cidade de Dunedin no testamento de Dorothy Theomin, filha de David Theomin, em 1966, e aberta ao público no ano seguinte. A casa é um registo da sumptuosa vida da era eduardiana na Nova Zelândia. (pt)
