Plate 2 from the extraordinary collection of 49 original watercolor drawings of animals by Ferdinand Lucas Bauer, created during the H.M.S. Investigator expedition to Australia from 1801 to 1803. This meticulously detailed illustration depicts the elusive and endangered Barred Bandicoot, Perameles bougainville, a marsupial native to eastern Australia and Tasmania. Bauer, an accomplished German artist, was invited by Captain Matthew Flinders, the expedition leader, to document the diverse Australian fauna. This drawing, created between 1774 and 1814, showcases the Barred Bandicoot's distinctive features: a long, pointed snout, banded fur, and a slender, agile body. The marsupial's nosed, long-snouted appearance is characteristic of the Peramelemorphia family, which also includes the quokka and bilby. The Barred Bandicoot is a vital part of the Marsupialia and Metatheria classes, which together form the mammalian group unique to Australia and its surrounding islands. This drawing offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of this remarkable marsupial, which was an essential discovery during the early exploration of the Australian continent. Matthew Flinders, an influential navigator and explorer, led the H.M.S. Investigator on a groundbreaking voyage of discovery, charting the coastline of Australia and identifying numerous new species. Bauer's illustrations, like this one, played a crucial role in documenting and sharing the wonders of the Australian natural world with the scientific community and the wider public. This image invites us to appreciate the rich biodiversity of Australia and the vital role that exploration and documentation play in understanding and preserving our natural heritage.
