EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in exquisite detail by Sarah Featon's skilled brushstrokes is a stunning print of Puawananga (Clematis indivisa), circa 1885. This vintage watercolour artwork, held within the esteemed collections of Te Papa Tongarewa Museum of New Zealand, showcases the beauty and majesty of this native New Zealand flower.
Puawananga, also known as Clematis paniculata or White Flowered Clematis, is a triple-threat plant - boasting not only its striking white blooms but also delicate leaves and stems. Featon's close-up depiction highlights these intricate details with precision and care.
This 19th-century artwork embodies the optimism of New Zealand's botanical heritage, celebrating the country's unique flora in all their glory. The print exudes a sense of cheerfulness, inviting viewers to step into its world of vibrant colours and delicate textures.
Sarah Featon was an accomplished artist who contributed significantly to our understanding of Aotearoa's natural history during the late 19th century. Her work not only provides valuable scientific documentation but also serves as a testament to her artistic skill and dedication.
This print is more than just a beautiful artwork - it represents a window into New Zealand's past, offering us a glimpse of its rich cultural heritage and botanical diversity.
