EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating assortment of ancient artifacts found in Ireland during the early 19th century. The image features two remarkable objects: an antient breast pin and a curious antique vessel, both discovered between 1810 and 1817. Measuring approximately 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this eclectic collection is housed at the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The photograph captures the essence of these unique treasures, which are beautifully depicted with watercolor and manuscript text by Kenelm Henry Digby (1800-80). Digby's illustrated manuscript titled "The Naturalists Companion" offers detailed drawings accompanied by suitable descriptions of various quadrupeds, birds, fishes, serpents, insects, as well as antiquities and natural productions found in museums across Dublin. With its handwritten labels adding to its allure, this assortment represents a diverse range of ancient Irish jewelry and miscellaneous items. From delicate pieces of jewellery to intriguing pottery jars and pots - each artifact holds its own story within the realms of history. Preserved for generations to come at the Mitchell Library in Australia's New South Wales state, this image not only celebrates Ireland's rich cultural heritage but also highlights the significance of archaeological discoveries made throughout Oceania. A testament to human creativity and ingenuity spanning centuries and continents alike!
