Louis Boldini

Louis Boldini (born Luigi Boldini; 9 April 1832 – 12 October 1908) was an Italian-born architect who made considerable contributions to the architecture of Dunedin, New Zealand and Victoria, Australia. For many years, little was known of Boldini's life, with New Zealand printed references (such as Southern People: A dictionary of Otago-Southland biography) lamenting "It is remarkable that so little is known about Boldini [...] It would be good to know more about this man who left a distinctively continental stamp of the predominantly British architecture of old Dunedin." rdf:langString
