EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing botanical illustration titled "Page 168. Unidentified plant (w/c)" by an unknown artist from the 18th century. Housed in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, this artwork is part of a larger collection called "Drawings of plants of New South Wales" consisting of approximately 259 exquisite botanical watercolours. The unidentified plant depicted in this piece is a trumpet-shaped or bell-shaped flower that grows close to the ground or entwined around shrubs and other vegetation. It can reach lengths of about six to eight yards and is commonly found in sandy soil. The vibrant yellow hues beautifully contrast with its creeping nature, creating a visually striking composition. The meticulous attention to detail captures every aspect of this mysterious flora, including its delicate tendrils and leaves. Presented at its natural size, viewers can appreciate the full-sized beauty and intricacy of this colonial-era specimen. This artwork not only serves as a testament to Australia's rich natural history but also highlights the skillful artistry employed by early botanists in documenting their discoveries. With Bridgeman Images preserving and sharing these historical treasures through fine art prints like this one, we are able to delve into the world of Australian flora and marvel at their unique characteristics for generations to come.
