Wee-ang-i, Ger-my, Won-ni, Goo-rung: A Vibrant Watercolour Illustration of Seven Molluscs from the Watling Collection This exquisite watercolour painting, titled "Wee-ang-i, Ger-my, Won-ni, Goo-rung," showcases the intricate beauty of seven molluscs native to Australia. Created in the 18th century by the Port Jackson Painter, this illustration is a testament to the natural history exploration that flourished during this period. The painting features two bivalves and five gastropods, showcasing the rich diversity of molluscan life in Australasia. The bivalves, depicted in the upper left and right corners, are identified as an Australwelk and a Bellastraea. The Australwelk, also known as the Australian scallop, is a large, fan-shaped bivalve with a distinctive radial pattern on its shell. The Bellastraea, on the other hand, is a small, rounded bivalve with a smooth, pearly shell. The five gastropods in the centre of the painting are identified as Cymatilesta, Cymatium, Floraconus, Monoplex, and Austrocochlea. The Cymatilesta, with its spiralled, hairy shell, is a common top-shell found along the Australian coast. The Cymatium, or the Tulip shell, is characterized by its distinctive, tulip-shaped shell. The Floraconus, or the Flat Conus, is a large, flat, cone-shaped gastropod with a spiral pattern on its body. The Monoplex, or the Slipper Limpet, is a small, flat gastropod that clings to rocks with a foot that resembles a slipper. Lastly, the Austrocochlea, or the Australian Turret Shell, is a large, spiral-shaped gastropod with a tall, conical shell. This stunning watercolour illustration not only showcases the diverse range of molluscs found in Australia but also highlights the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the Port Jackson Painter. It is a valuable addition to the Watling Collection, providing a glimpse into the natural history of Australia during the 18th century.
