EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the esteemed figure of Sir Joseph Banks, an influential English naturalist, botanist, and science patron of the 19th century. The artist behind this remarkable engraving is H Robinson, who skillfully portrays Banks with great attention to detail. Sir Joseph Banks is renowned for his participation in Captain Cook's first great voyage from 1768 to 1771. His contributions to botanical exploration are immense, as approximately 80 species bear his name. This print highlights his significant role in introducing various plant species to the Western world, including eucalyptus, acacia, mimosa, and banksia - a genus named after him. The portrait showcases a distinguished man with an air of intellectual curiosity. As a naturalist and botanist dedicated to scientific advancement, Sir Joseph Banks played a crucial part in expanding our understanding of nature during that era.
