EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor print, titled "Gna-gorong and Gung a rung," is a beautiful illustration of three intriguing marine invertebrates from the waters of Australasia, created by the skilled hand of Thomas Watling in the 18th century. The central figure is the vibrant and distinctive Charonia rubicunda, commonly known as the Red Australwelk or the Red Triton's Shell. This large, pointed, spiral shell is home to the Triton's trumpet snail, a gastropod mollusk of the Ranellidae family. The Red Australwelk is native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans and is characterized by its striking red and brown coloration. Adorning the upper left corner of the print is a Volute, a gastropod mollusk of the Neotaenioglossa suborder. The Volute's elegant, spiral shell is adorned with intricate, brown patterns, making it a visually striking addition to the composition. The third creature in this illustration is the Red Australwelk, also known as the Red Triton or the Red Triton's Shell. This large, pointed, spiral shell is home to the Triton's trumpet snail, a gastropod mollusk of the Ranellidae family. The Red Australwelk is native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans and is characterized by its striking red and brown coloration. Thomas Watling, an accomplished artist, expertly captured the intricate details of these fascinating marine creatures, providing a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the waters of Australasia during the 18th century. This exquisite watercolor print is a testament to Watling's artistic skill and his keen observation of the natural world.
