2 The entire Heidelberg School Artists’ Trail extends beyond the boundaries of Manningham, where the sites depart from the Yarra River.
3 Although the township sits in the City of Manningham, the northern part of Warrandyte exists in the Shire of Nillumbik. People who live and visit there, however, generally do not make any distinction based on municipal boundaries. When we use the term ‘Warrandyte’s reputation’, therefore, it must encompass the whole of the area, not purely the Manningham side.

7 An exotic Russian emigre, the painter Danila Vassilieff arrived in Melbourne in 1937, where local modernists gave him an enthusiastic welcome. He built his home, Stonygrad, in Warrandyte (north of the Yarra). See Janine Burke, The Eye of the Beholder: Albert Tuckers Photographs, Museum of Modern Art at Heide, Melbourne, 1998, pp. 16-17.
