EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of John William Lewin, a renowned artist who became the first professional artist in the British colony of New South Wales, Australia. Created between 1803 and 1806, this illustration is part of his collection titled "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants". The image features two stunning plant species: Bignonia australis and Pandorea pandorana. With delicate strokes of watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil, Lewin brings these botanical wonders to life on paper. The white tubular flowers of both plants stand out against the lush green foliage. Lewin's attention to detail is evident as he captures every intricate feature with precision. The dimensions of this masterpiece measure approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm. As we admire this piece from the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales, we are transported back in time to witness Australia's natural beauty through an artist's eyes. This work not only serves as a testament to Lewin's talent but also contributes to our understanding of Australian flora and its rich history. With its blend of scientific accuracy and artistic finesse, this illustration exemplifies why Lewin remains an influential figure in both art and botany. It reminds us that even centuries later, his legacy continues to inspire admiration for Australia's unique plant life among art enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
