EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Page 141. Casuarina stricta / Allocasuarina verticillata, c. Created by John William Lewin, the first professional artist in New South Wales, Australia during the early 19th century, this artwork is a testament to his talent and passion for botanical illustration. Lewin's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil used to bring this Australian plant to life. The painting belongs to his renowned collection titled "Botanical Sketches of Australian Plants" which was created between 1803-06. The dimensions of this artwork range from approximately 38-38.5 x 25-28 cm, allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate features of each element portrayed. The drooping she oak or drooping sheoak takes center stage with its slender needles and vibrant pink flowers that add a pop of color against a muted background. This piece not only serves as an exquisite example of botanical art but also provides valuable insight into Australia's natural history during colonial times. Its inclusion in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales ensures that future generations can admire Lewin's contribution to both art and science. With its combination of scientific accuracy and artistic flair, Page 141 stands as a timeless tribute to Australia's unique flora while showcasing Lewin's mastery as an artist.
