EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 31. Styphelia viridiflora" by John William Lewin, a renowned artist of the British colony in New South Wales during the early 19th century. The artwork, created between 1803 and 1806, is part of his collection titled "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants". Lewin's exceptional talent as a professional artist shines through in this exquisite illustration that highlights the beauty and intricacy of Australian flora. The painting combines watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil to bring to life the delicate details of Styphelia viridiflora. The dimensions of this artwork are approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, showcasing Lewin's meticulous attention to detail on a relatively small canvas. The botanical illustration captures the essence of this particular plant species with its five green corners and protruding stamens. Styphelia viridiflora is known for its tubular flowers that gracefully droop downwards. This depiction allows viewers to appreciate both its unique shape and vibrant green coloration. Preserved at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this piece serves as an important historical record not only for art enthusiasts but also for those interested in Australia's natural history. Through Lewin's artistic prowess and dedication to capturing Australian plants' diversity, he has left behind a remarkable legacy that continues to inspire generations today.
