EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, created in 1881, showcases a harmonious encounter between the Copperleaf Snowberry (Gaultheria hispida) and Purple Apple-Berry (Billardiera longiflora) in their native Tasmanian habitat. The Copperleaf Snowberry, with its vibrant red berries and evergreen foliage, is nestled among the lush greenery, while the Purple Apple-Berry, adorned with its striking magenta berries, adds a pop of color to the scene. The intrigue of this image is further enhanced by the presence of an Emerald King Butterfly (Papilio palinurus), its wings spread wide on a nearby twig. The delicate wings of this iconic Australian butterfly, with their striking blue and green hues, contrast beautifully against the rich reds and greens of the surrounding flora. Louisa Anne Meredith, a renowned Australian artist and naturalist, meticulously captured this moment in her book "Tasmanian Friends and Foes, Feathered, Furred and Finned." Meredith's keen observations and artistic talent are evident in this exquisite illustration. The scene is not without its smaller inhabitants. A Ctenomorpha (a type of stick insect) can be seen on the margin of the image, while a female Epacris Impressa, a native shrub, provides a backdrop for the unfurling leaf of a Mantis Phasma, a type of praying mantis. This image is a testament to the rich biodiversity of Tasmania and the dedication of Meredith, who, as both an artist and scientist, was able to document and celebrate the natural world around her.
