This volume includes 62 colour illustrations and details the use of the Waratah motif in Australian arcitecture and decorative arts. Baker argues that the Waratah motif had figured in almost all of the local branches of the liberal arts and sciences since the Colony's foundation (ie 1788) to his times. In the spirit of Lucien Henry he offered this study as 'a contribution towards the foundation of a National School of Australian Applied Art & Design' so that design students would study the local flora as a source of inspiration. He discusses the various types of NSW, Victorian and Tasmanian waratahs and shows their application in the local architecture, bookbindings, ceramics, enamel tiles, electrical fittings, glassware, horolog, ironwork, lace, modelling, silverware, wallpapers, dados, friezes, windows and woodcarvings. He concludes with articles and legends about the waratah.

The Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences in Sydney maintains a fascinating collection of early twentieth century applied art objects decorated with Australian wild flowers. The collection reflects the passionate preoccupation of its originator, former Museum curator and botanist, R.T. Baker, with the use of native floras as motifs for design in art, craft and industry. "Australian Flora Applied to Art" began as an exhibition in 1906 in the Technological Museum (the Museum changed its name to the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences in 1961) largely as a result of Baker's interest in the subject. A selection from the Museum's collection is presented in this book.
