EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Camphor Myrtle, or Babingtonia camphorosmae, a beautiful and rare plant native to Western Australia. The illustration was created by the talented Miss Sarah Drake and engraved by George Barclay for the Edwards Botanical Register, edited by John Lindley, published in London by Ridgeway in 1842. The Camphor Myrtle, also known as Camphorwort Babingtonia, is a small tree or shrub that grows up to 3 meters tall. It is characterized by its glossy, green leaves that have a camphor-like scent when crushed, giving it its common name. The plant is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia and is found in the jarrah and marri forests. The intricate detail of this engraving showcases the delicate features of the Camphor Myrtle, from its slender branches adorned with small, white flowers, to the veins on its leaves and the texture of its bark. The use of hand-coloring adds an extra layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. Miss Sarah Drake was a skilled botanical artist who contributed many illustrations to various botanical publications during the 19th century. Her meticulous attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of her subjects made her a respected figure in the field of botanical illustration. George Barclay, the engraver, expertly translated Drake's illustrations into intricate copperplate engravings, preserving their beauty and accuracy for generations to come. This engraving is a testament to the importance of botanical exploration and documentation during the 19th century, and serves as a reminder of the natural wonders that can be found in the most remote corners of the world.
