EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning botanical illustration by John William Lewin, titled "Page 149. Acacia discolor / Acacia terminalis". Created between 1803 and 1806, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of Australian flora during the colonial era. Lewin, known as the first professional artist in New South Wales, Australia, meticulously depicted these acacia species using watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil. The delicate white flowers of the Acacia discolor and Acacia terminalis are brought to life with remarkable precision. The artwork is part of Lewin's renowned collection called "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants" which offers a glimpse into the rich natural history of Australia at that time. Measuring approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm in size, this piece can be found at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales. The composition exudes an air of tranquility as sunlight gently illuminates these native plants against a muted background. The pale yellow hues add depth to their intricate details while showcasing their unique beauty. This print not only serves as a testament to Lewin's artistic talent but also provides us with an invaluable window into Australia's botanical heritage. It is a true treasure for those passionate about botany, natural history or anyone who appreciates artistry inspired by nature's wonders.
