EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of John William Lewin, a renowned artist who became the first professional artist in the British colony of New South Wales, Australia. The piece titled "Page 108. Kennedia rubicunda" is part of his collection called Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants, created between 1803 and 1806. Lewin's attention to detail is evident in this stunning illustration that combines watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil techniques. The vibrant red hues beautifully capture the essence of the Dusky Coral Pea flower from the Fabaceae family. Its delicate petals seem to come alive on paper as they gracefully unfold. Displayed at Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this artwork represents an important chapter in Australian natural history. It serves as a testament to Lewin's dedication to documenting and preserving Australia's unique flora through his artistic talent. The dimensions of this masterpiece range from approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, allowing viewers to appreciate its intricate details up close. As we admire Lewin's skillful brushstrokes and precise lines, we are transported back in time to witness nature's beauty through his eyes. This print by Bridgeman Images invites us into a world where art intersects with botany—a visual feast for those passionate about both disciplines.
