EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate artwork of John William Lewin, a renowned artist who became the first professional artist in the British colony of New South Wales, Australia. The image is part of his collection titled "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants" created between 1803 and 1806. Lewin's attention to detail is evident in this particular piece, depicting Pomaderris ligustrina, a species belonging to the Rhamnaceae family. Using watercolors, pen, ink, and pencil, he brings forth the beauty of this dried brown flower cluster with utmost precision. The dimensions of this artwork are approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, making it an exquisite example of botanical illustration from that era. Preserved at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this print offers a glimpse into Australia's natural history during colonial times. As you admire Lewin's work through this print by Bridgeman Images on Fine Art Finder, take note of how he captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a sense of wonder for Australian flora. This timeless piece serves as a testament to both Lewin's artistic talent and his contribution to documenting Australia's rich botanical heritage.
