EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Page 167. Fumaria naturalized, c. 1803-06" takes us back to the early 19th century in Australia. Created by John William Lewin, the first professional artist of the British colony of New South Wales, this artwork is part of his renowned collection called Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants. Measuring approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, this illustration showcases Lewin's mastery in watercolor, pen and ink, and pencil techniques. The delicate strokes bring to life a vibrant purple flower known as Fumaria or fumewort from the papaveraceae family. Lewin's attention to detail is evident as he captures every intricate feature of this native Australian plant with precision and accuracy. The composition exudes an air of elegance and grace that highlights both its botanical significance and aesthetic beauty. Displayed at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this piece serves as a testament to Australia's rich natural history during colonial times. It offers viewers a glimpse into the diverse flora that thrived on these lands centuries ago. As we admire Lewin's artistic talent through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded not only of nature's splendor but also of our connection to it across time and space.
