EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 31. Two antique heads in terra cotta; a household god; two steel neck pins, 1810-17" by Kenelm Henry Digby. The artwork, measuring 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, is housed at the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The image presents an assortment of objects that exude a sense of variety and eclecticism. Among them are metalwork pieces, handwritten manuscripts, and various antiquities carefully labeled and displayed for observation. The collection includes statuettes, drawings of natural productions such as animals and insects, as well as depictions of deities. Kenelm Henry Digby's illustrated manuscript titled "The Naturalists Companion" serves as a testament to his meticulous attention to detail in capturing both living creatures and stuffed specimens found in museums across Dublin Society and College. The photograph transports viewers into the realm of antiquity with its array of artefacts from different eras beautifully arranged together. Each item holds its own story waiting to be discovered through examination or contemplation. Located in Australia's Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this remarkable piece adds depth to the country's artistic landscape while shedding light on historical connections between artistry and scientific exploration. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured this extraordinary composition without mentioning any commercial use but rather focusing on the rich cultural heritage it represents.
