Australia:
300 Years of Botanical Illustration
by Helen J. Hewson
This finely crafted and beautifully presented book gives a magnificent
overview of the way in which Australian plants have been depicted over
the past three centuries. It is the first time that three centuries of
botanical art have been brought together in one volume, providing a unique
insight into the relationship between art and science. It describes the
collection and classification of plants for science, as well as the establishment
of botanic gardens, herbaria, and publications within the country. Intertwined
with this is the history of the art of illustrating plants and of the methods
of reproducing those illustrations.... with 160 colour illustrations drawn
from major herbaria and museums in both Europe and Australia. The Publisher.
