EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Mourning Wattle, Acacia verticillata subsp. ruscifolia, also known as Acacia moesta. The engraving is based on an original illustration by the talented Miss Sarah Drake and was published in the Edwards Botanical Register, edited by John Lindley, in London in 1846. The image showcases the beauty and intricacy of this Australian native plant, with its delicate yellow flowers and distinctive, wavy-edged leaves. The Mourning Wattle is a small tree or shrub that is native to eastern Australia, growing in woodlands and forests. It is also known as the Sydenham Wattle or the Rusty-leaved Wattle, due to the rust-colored hue of its leaves. The tree is named after Sir Charles Moore, 2nd Baronet of Sydenham, who was an avid collector of Australian flora. The engraving captures the essence of the Mourning Wattle's natural beauty, with each petal and leaf meticulously rendered in hand-colored detail. The artist, Miss Sarah Drake, was a renowned botanical illustrator of her time, known for her precise and elegant drawings. Her collaboration with George Barclay, the engraver, resulted in this stunning representation of the Mourning Wattle that continues to captivate viewers to this day. The Mourning Wattle is not only a beautiful plant but also holds cultural significance in Australia. It is the floral emblem of the Australian Capital Territory and is often used as a symbol of mourning and remembrance. The tree is believed to bloom in response to rainfall and the death of other trees, making it a fitting symbol of resilience and renewal.
