Title A name given to the resource Percy Grainger, Drawing by Ernest Thesiger, 1903 Subject The topic of the resource Objects of Fame: Nellie Melba and Percy Grainger Description An account of the resource Ernest Thesiger was one of the closest of the many artist and musician friends that Grainger made, especially in the first decades of his career. Thesiger was an aspiring painter when he made this drawing, and later became a stage and film actor. Thesiger introduced Grainger to banker William Gair Rathbone, who became a father-figure for the young Australian while he was in London. Thesiger also introduced Grainger to John Singer Sargent, who played a crucial role in setting Grainger up as a society pianist. Grainger said of Rathbone and Sargent that they were his ’“good angels” during these challenging London years’.

Looking like a contemporary depiction of the martyrdom of Saint Anthony, the original purpose of this photograph has been lost. Grainger is depicted in silhouette, and the original negative has been intriguingly chemically reversed—the negative has become a positive. What do the hand-drawn arrows refer to? What is the purpose of the frame surrounding his figure? Grainger used alpha-numeric nomenclature to organise his archive but the number 7969 does not relate to any known lists.

Title A name given to the resource Percy Grainger, 1904 Subject The topic of the resource Objects of Fame: Nellie Melba and Percy Grainger Description An account of the resource Paris-based Australian painter, Rupert Bunny, was commissioned by Percy Grainger to paint this portrait in the first few years of the young musician’s professional career. Bunny depicted Grainger holding a sheet of music and focussed attention on his youthful charisma. Grainger became acquainted with Bunny through Nellie Melba. Bunny had painted a full-length portrait of her a few years earlier. Artist Jacques-Émile Blanche, a friend of Bunny, described meeting Grainger in 1902. ‘Stupified’ by the encounter, Blanche characterised Grainger as a ‘steely-eyed archangel with the most admirable profile, a lopsided mouth, red as a cactus, and golden hair’.
