Crater of the Summit of Mount Worroray, Owhyhee, 1798
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This watercolor print by William Alexander takes us back to the late 18th century and offers a glimpse into the awe-inspiring landscape of Mount Worroray, now known as Mt Kilauea. The artist's meticulous attention to detail transports us to this volcanic wonder in Owhyhee (Hawaii), where nature's raw power is on full display. In this scene, we witness a harmonious meeting of cultures as native Hawaiians and British explorers come together to survey the crater. Thomas Heddington can be seen sketching diligently amidst billowing plumes of smoke and molten lava flows. The presence of these individuals adds depth and scale to the composition while emphasizing humanity's fascination with natural phenomena. The vastness of the Pacific Ocean serves as an exquisite backdrop, its azure waters contrasting with the fiery hues emanating from within the volcano. This juxtaposition reminds us that even in such serene surroundings, danger lurks beneath the surface. Alexander's skillful use of watercolors captures both the grandeur and fragility inherent in volcanic landscapes. Every brushstroke brings life to swirling clouds above and rugged terrain below, evoking a sense of reverence for Earth's geological wonders. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from centuries past, let it serve as a reminder that our planet continues to shape itself through powerful forces beyond our control—a testament to nature's eternal beauty and resilience.
