  About Mythographe editions
 

Mythographe editions operates out of the Maldon Marbles Studio owned by sculptor Michel Dubey. The studio, located at 48 High St, Maldon, Victoria, was built in 1862. It was the home of the Maddocks family during the 1870s when the parents of four children died within months of each other. The children continued to live in the house under the care of Mary Bourke who became the wife of George McArthur, the first benefactor of the Melbourne University Baillieu Library.

When Michel bought the house, then known as Vivian’s House after the Vivian family, it was in great disrepair. He undertook the careful restoration of the house and now uses it as his home and studio.

The unusual brick work around the front windows and door and the decorative finials on the parapet of the facade are reminiscent of a Moorish style of architecture. If you look carefully at the brick work to the left of the front door you can see the imprint of two possum paws.

 

Apart from purchasing on line, the prints and greeting cards can be viewed and purchased from the studio which is opened Friday to Sunday,
10am – 5pm.

The Maldon Marbles Collection of original bas-relief marble sculptures of stories from classical mythology can also be viewed in person at the studio or by going to www.maldonmarbles.com
