But not all remnants on this island are idyllic scenes; there are also reminders of decay and forgotten stories. An old lighter boat slowly succumbs to nature's embrace on Norfolk Island—a poignant symbol of time's passage and changing fortunes. While exploring the island's rich heritage extends beyond architecture and artifacts alone, botanical illustrations from c. 1790-95 offer glimpses into its diverse flora. From F. 31 Tylophora biglandolusa to F. 10 Solanum bauerianum;Solanum aviculare—these delicate ink & w/c on paper renderings capture nature's intricate beauty that has thrived here for centuries. As you wander through this world heritage listed area adorned with historic buildings and surrounded by stunning landscapes, let your imagination soar back in time while appreciating how far we've come since those convict days at Norfolk Island.
