EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art titled "Page 25. A Kangaroo. Now known as a Kangaroo". The artwork is believed to be a copy by Sarah Stone, an accomplished artist from the late 18th century, based on a plate originally created by Charles Catton Junr. in 1789-90. Housed at the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, this image forms part of an album containing 31 exquisite watercolor paintings depicting Australian fauna dating back to around 1790. The dimensions of the sheet measure approximately 33.8 x 25.1 cm, with the drawings confined within frame lines measuring roughly 23 x 17 cm. The painting itself captures the essence and beauty of this marsupial species - its full length body standing gracefully on rocky terrain with hind legs prominently displayed. This stunning portrayal provides insight into Australia's unique wildlife and serves as a testament to Sarah Stone's talent in capturing zoological illustrations. With its rich history and significance in natural history studies, this artwork offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the world of early Australian exploration and scientific discovery through visual representation. Displayed here courtesy of Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic brilliance but also the cultural importance that these historical pieces hold for future generations interested in both art and natural sciences alike.
