EDITORS COMMENTS
Page 97. The Ringed Boa, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text) captures the exquisite beauty and intricate details of one of nature's most fascinating creatures. This artwork by Kenelm Henry Digby is a part of 'The Naturalists Companion, ' an illustrated manuscript that showcases a vast array of animals, insects, and natural wonders. In this particular illustration, we are presented with a mesmerizing view from above as the Ringed Boa slithers gracefully across the page. Its pale body adorned with distinct patterns creates a striking contrast against the white background. The meticulously handwritten labels provide valuable information about this Australian serpent species known as Corallus annulatus. Digby's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his brush, capturing not only the physical attributes but also the essence of this remarkable reptile. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can't help but marvel at its lifelike representation and appreciate the artist's dedication to accuracy. Displayed proudly in Mitchell Library at State Library of New South Wales, this piece serves as both an educational resource and a testament to Australia's rich wildlife heritage.
