EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the Hawthorn-scented Boronia, Boronia pinnata, a native Australian flower discovered in New South Wales during the early 19th century. The botanical illustration was originally created by the talented Mrs. Augusta Withers and later meticulously engraved by S. Nevitt for publication in Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's esteemed botanical work, "The Botanist," published in London in 1836. Boronia pinnata is renowned for its delightful fragrance, reminiscent of hawthorn, which adds to its allure. The intricate details of the flower's petals, sepals, and stamens are beautifully captured in this engraving, providing a stunning representation of the plant's natural beauty. Mrs. Withers, an accomplished botanical artist, expertly rendered the Boronia pinnata's delicate features, showcasing the intricacies of its structure. Her attention to detail and artistic flair are evident in the elegant curves and subtle shading of the petals, as well as the precise rendering of the veining on the leaves. S. Nevitt's masterful copperplate engraving further enhances the botanical illustration, bringing out the intricacies of the Boronia pinnata's form and texture. The use of handcolouring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the engraving, making it a true work of art. This Victorian-era botanical print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, as well as the skill and dedication of the botanical artists and engravers of the time. It remains an invaluable resource for botanical research and a source of inspiration for gardeners and nature lovers alike.
