EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning botanical illustration titled "Page 213. Diuris aurea. Exot. Bot. t. 9. AGolden Donkey Orchid (w/c)" by an unknown artist from the 18th century. The artwork can be found in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, and is part of Volume 05: Drawings of plants of New South Wales, which consists of approximately 259 exquisite botanical watercolours. Measuring at 31.1 x 19.5 cm and smaller, this delicate depiction captures the essence of the Golden Donkey Orchid with remarkable precision and detail. The vibrant yellow flower stands out against its green surroundings, creating a visually striking composition that celebrates the beauty of nature. Although incomplete and unfinished, this sketch-like outline exudes a sense of rawness and authenticity that adds to its charm as a historical artifact from colonial times in Australia's natural history. Brought to us by Bridgeman Images through Fine Art Finder, this drawing serves as a testament to both artistic talent and scientific curiosity prevalent during that era. It invites viewers to appreciate not only the aesthetic appeal but also the rich biodiversity found within Australia's flora.
