EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolour painting depicts the stunning Strelitzia reginae, also known as the Bird of Paradise flower, created by English artist Emily J. Balston (nee Whitehead) between 1880 and 1913. The artwork is held in the Library and Archives and showcases the artist's exceptional talent in capturing the intricacies of this magnificent African angiosperm. The Bird of Paradise flower is a member of the Strelitziaceae family, order Zingiberales, and is native to South Africa. Its vibrant, orange-colored bracts and blue-purple nectar-filled flowers give an illusion of a bird in flight, hence the name. The plant is a monocotyledon, belonging to the commelinid clade of the monocotyledonous dicotyledonous group, Magnoliophyta. Emily Balston's painting is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the plant kingdom. As a woman artist, her work stands out in a time when male artists dominated the botanical illustration scene. Her attention to detail and use of watercolour technique bring the Bird of Paradise flower to life, making it a captivating addition to any collection of botanical art. The painting also highlights the importance of documenting and preserving the natural world. The Bird of Paradise flower is a symbol of the rich biodiversity found in Africa and serves as a reminder of the need to protect and conserve these precious natural resources for future generations.
