EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century drawing, titled "Warratta," depicts the stunning Telopea speciosissima, commonly known as the waratah, a native Australian flowering plant belonging to the Proteaceae family. The illustration is part of the Watling Collection, created by an unidentified Port Jackson Painter between 1788 and 1797. The waratah is a prominent and iconic plant in Australian flora, characterized by its large, vibrant red bracts that encircle the yellow-green flowers. The Telopea speciosissima is an angiosperm, a type of flowering plant that produces seeds enclosed in an ovary. It is a eudicot, meaning it has two embryonic seed leaves, and is further classified as an eudicotyledon and a magnoliophyta. The waratah is a member of the Proteales order, which includes a diverse range of plants with protective structures, such as the cotton and peanut. This illustration provides a valuable record of the waratah during the early European exploration of Australia. The intricate details of the plant's structure, including the veining on the leaves and the arrangement of the flowers, are expertly captured, showcasing the skill and artistry of the Port Jackson Painter. The waratah is a cherished symbol of Australia, and this historic drawing continues to captivate viewers with its beauty and significance in the natural history of the continent.
