EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 25. Persoonia salicina, c. 1803-06" by John William Lewin, a renowned artist of the British colony in New South Wales, Australia during the early 19th century. As the first professional artist in this region, Lewin made significant contributions to documenting and illustrating Australian flora. Taken from his series "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants" this illustration beautifully captures the delicate features of Persoonia salicina. The artwork combines watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil techniques to bring out the intricate details of this native plant species. Measuring approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, this piece can be found at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales. It serves as a valuable historical record not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to botanical knowledge during that era. Persoonia salicina is commonly known as broad-leaved geebung and belongs to the Proteaceae family. This small plant with woody stems bears stunning yellow flowers that add vibrancy to any landscape they inhabit. Through Lewin's skillful brushwork and attention to detail, viewers are transported back in time to witness Australia's natural beauty through an artist's eyes. This print allows us to appreciate both artistry and scientific exploration while celebrating our rich botanical heritage.
