EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 35. Ipomoea palmata" by John William Lewin, a renowned artist of the British colony in New South Wales, Australia during the early 19th century. The artwork is part of his collection titled "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants" created between 1803 and 1806. Lewin's exceptional talent as a professional artist is evident in this exquisite illustration that beautifully captures the essence of Ipomoea palmata, commonly known as morning glory or bindweed. Using watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil techniques, he brings to life the vibrant purple flowers and intricate details of this native Australian plant from the convolvulaceae family. The dimensions of this artwork are approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, showcasing Lewin's meticulous attention to detail. Preserved at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this piece offers a glimpse into Australia's natural history through botanical art. As one admires Lewin's skillful portrayal of Ipomoea palmata against a white background, it becomes apparent why he holds such significance in Australian colonial art history. This timeless masterpiece not only serves as an educational tool for botany enthusiasts but also stands as a testament to Lewin's contribution to capturing Australia's unique flora on canvas.
