EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of John William Lewin, a renowned artist who became the first professional artist in the British colony of New South Wales, Australia. The image depicts "Page 203. Anagallis arvenis" a stunning botanical illustration from his collection titled "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants" created between 1803 and 1806. Lewin's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this piece, which combines watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil techniques. The vibrant red hue of the Scarlet Pimpernel flower (Anagallis arvenis) takes center stage against a backdrop that highlights its delicate features. This work not only serves as an aesthetic masterpiece but also contributes to our understanding of Australian flora and natural history. Measuring approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, this print captures every intricate stroke with precision and clarity. Housed within the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales, it stands as a testament to Lewin's artistic talent and dedication to documenting Australia's unique plant life. As we admire this remarkable piece by John William Lewin through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of nature's beauty and its ability to inspire artistry throughout history.
