Created using watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil, this artwork is a part of the renowned collection at the Mitchell Library in the State Library of New South Wales.

The dimensions of approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm allow for intricate details to be captured with precision. The delicate pink flower depicted belongs to the Ericaceae family and is commonly known as Styphelia triflora or heather. Its stamens protrude elegantly from its tubular structure while its drooping petals create a sense of gracefulness.
