EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a delicate botanical illustration titled "Page 208. Arethusa certe? Caladenia carnea Br / Pink Fingers Orchid (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 Volume 05: Drawings of plants of New South Wales, featuring approximately 259 exquisite botanical watercolours. Measuring at 31.1 x 19.5 cm and smaller, this piece beautifully captures the allure of Australian flora with its depiction of the Pink Fingers Orchid. The pale pink hues delicately painted on each petal highlight the intricate details and elegance of this bulbous flower. As we admire this painting, we are transported back to colonial times when natural history studies were highly valued. This artwork serves as a testament to both artistic talent and scientific curiosity prevalent during that era. The Mitchell Library's acquisition of such remarkable pieces allows us to appreciate Australia's rich biodiversity through artistry and precision. It reminds us that nature's beauty can be immortalized through brushstrokes and preserved for generations to come.
