EDITORS COMMENTS
A Native of New South Wales surprising and wounding another whilst asleep by Port Jackson Painter, 1788-1797 (Drawing 47, Watling Collection) This evocative drawing, titled "A Native of New South Wales surprising and wounding another whilst asleep," is a poignant and intriguing depiction of Aboriginal men engaged in a physical altercation, set against the backdrop of the rugged Australian coastline. The scene, rendered by an anonymous artist known as the Port Jackson Painter, is believed to have been created between 1788 and 1797. The drawing captures the raw intensity of the moment, with one Aboriginal man, armed with a spear, lunging at another who lies unaware on the ground. The man on the ground, caught off guard, reacts with surprise and fear, his body tensed and his eyes wide open. The contrasting emotions and expressions of the two men are palpable, adding to the drama of the scene. The drawing is part of the Watling Collection, which is housed in the Mitchell Library in Sydney, Australia. The collection, which consists of over 2,000 watercolors and drawings, provides valuable insights into the early history of Australia and its Indigenous peoples. This particular drawing is a rare and fascinating glimpse into the lives of the Aboriginal people of the region during the late 18th century. The landscape in the background is characterized by its rugged terrain, with rocky cliffs and the shoreline visible in the distance. The drawing also features intricate details, such as the ornate patterns on the men's bodies, which are indicative of their cultural traditions and significance. Despite the violence depicted in the drawing, it is an important historical record of a time when European settlement was just beginning to reshape the Australian continent and its Indigenous peoples' lives. The drawing serves as a reminder of the complex and nuanced history of the region and the people who have called it home for thousands of years.
