Mast and Thiele To examine claims that the role of botanical art in systematic botany is diminishing because of advances in photography, this review considers relevant literature and includes a quantitative analysis of trends in modern journals, monographs and floras. Bauer's drawings and watercolours have been brought together for the first time in Painting by Numbers.

  • SL Magazine Summer Edition 2017-18
    –Magazine for members Summer 2017–18 Painting by numbers: Ferdinand Bauer Message Dear readers, visitors and friends, What a privilege it is to be State Librarian, responsible for one of the best loved and most important institutions in Australia. Since I began on 28 August, I have encountered nothing but enthusiasm, good will and a broad desire to see the Library continue to flourish and grow — a tribute to the three State Librarians with whom I have worked over the years, Regina Sutton, Alex Byrne and Lucy Milne. I also pay tribute to a remarkable generation of recent curators and librarians, now retired, including the likes of Paul Brunton, Alan Davies and Elizabeth Ellis. This time next year the Library will be a very different place — with more of its unique treasures on public show than ever before thanks to a great partnership between the NSW Government and our benefactors led by Michael Crouch AC, who is driving a major development of new galleries in the Mitchell wing, and John B Fairfax AO, who is behind a new learning centre being created in the same building. You can find a little more about the plans for the next phase of the Library’s history inside these pages, but I would like to mention a special event in November which draws attention to another very important aspect of the Library’s work — collaboration with scholars and scientists. For some years, the Belalberi Foundation (led by Peter Crossing AM and Sally Crossing AM) has generously supported original research into Australian natural history at the Library, and on 16 November we are launching a book and special online exhibition marking the culmination of this remarkable, long term project.

  • Global Affinities: the Natural Method and Anomalous Plants in the Nineteenth Century Lorelai Kury
    HoST - Journal of History of Science and Technology Vol. 15, no. 1, June 2021, pp. 39-70 10.2478/host-2021-0003 SPECIAL ISSUE GLOBAL FLORA: MASTERING EXOTIC PLANTS (EIGHTEENTH—NINETEENTH CENTURIES) Global Affinities: The Natural Method and Anomalous Plants in the Nineteenth Century Lorelai Kury Casa de Oswaldo Cruz, Fiocruz, Brazil [email protected] Sara Albuquerque IHC-Nova FCSH, Pólo Universidade de Évora, Portugal [email protected] Abstract: Approaching from an analysis of the work of Robert Brown (1773-1858) and Friedrich Welwitsch (1806-1872) on Rafflesiaand Welwitschia, this article explores how the “natural method” became a tool for understanding extra-European flora in the nineteenth century. As botanists worked to detect “hidden affinities” between plants that would enable them to identify the so-called natural families to which even anomalous species belonged, they relied on comparison as their basic methodological procedure, making it essential for them to have access to collections. In their scientific writings, professional botanists tended to steer clear of any emphasis on plant exoticism. While botany engaged in dialogue with various types of approaches, the field essentially normalized the exotic. The article’s exploration of the hermetic style of scientific texts and the way botanists incorporated illustrators’ work sheds light on the complexity of the spaces where natural history was done, in a context where plants were circulating from around the globe.

First Published: 1990 580.994 1 Australian Etext Collections at botany prose nonfiction 1940- women writers The flower chain the early discovery of Australian plants Sydney Kangaroo Press 1998 Preface Viewing Australia through the early European discovery, naming and appreciation of its flora, gives a fresh perspective on the first white people who went to the continent. There have been books on the battle to transform the wilderness into an agriculturally ordered land, on the convicts, on the goldrush, on the discovery of the wealth of the continent, on most aspects of settlement, but this is the first to link the story of the discovery of the continent with the slow awareness of its unique trees, shrubs and flowers of Australia. The Flower Chain Chapter 1 The Flower Chain Begins Convict chains are associated with early British settlement of Australia, but there were also lighter chains in those grim days. Chains of flowers and seeds to be grown and classified stretched across the oceans from Botany Bay to Europe, looping back again with plants and seeds of the old world that were to Europeanise the landscape and transform it forever.

  • Options for the Risk Management of Bushfires in the Blue Mountains A
    A FIERY DEBATE—PUTTING ANGER ON THE BACKBURNER "Snow and sleet are falling on two bushfires burning in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney." ABC Radio news, 15 November 2006. Spoken without a trace of irony, the words of the newsreader encapsulate the extraordinary, and sometimes perversely unpredictable, nature of life in this landscape forged by fire. The Grose Valley holds a special place in the hearts of Australia’s conservationists, being the site of the first great victory for the movement in Australia in 1931-32—but it would not be as we know and love it if it were not occasionally shrouded in smoke rather than mist. However, coming after a long period of drought and amidst dire warnings that Australia is facing an even hotter and drier future, the most recent fire in the Grose Valley has reignited an increasingly heated debate over fire management practices, both within the local community and further afield. (As a result of these concerns, the Blue Mountains World Heritage Institute hosted a forum on the Grose Valley fire in February, the outcomes of which are discussed on page 3.) So with bushfires predicted to increase in both frequency and intensity, how do we protect people and property whilst preserving the biological integrity of the World Heritage Area? How well do we understand the ecological responses to fire? Are we managing fire risk in the most appropriate way for both the community and the environment? The Blue Mountains Conservation Society has organised a meeting to examine these issues—come and hear five experts in fire management and ecology give their views, with the opportunity for questions and discussion afterwards.

  • Botanical Illustration and Photography: a Southern Hemisphere Perspective
    CSIRO PUBLISHING Australian Systematic Botany, 2017, 30, 291–325 LAS Johnson Review https://doi.org/10.1071/SB16059 Botanical illustration and photography: a southern hemisphere perspective Ellen J. Hickman A,C, Colin J. Yates B and Stephen D. Hopper A ACentre of Excellence in Natural Resource Management and School of Plant Biology, University of Western Australia, Albany, WA 6330, Australia. BScience Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife, Bentley, WA 6983, Australia. CCorresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract. To examine claims that the role of botanical art in systematic botany is diminishing because of advances in photography, this review considers relevant literature and includes a quantitative analysis of trends in modern journals, monographs and floras. Our focus is on southern hemisphere systematic botany because, relative to the northern hemisphere, this is poorly represented in modern reviews of botanical art and photography. An analysis of all digitally available papers in Nuytsia, the Journal of the Adelaide Botanic Garden, Muelleria, Telopea, Austrobaileya and Systematic Botany established that, although photographic illustrations have increased since 2000, botanical illustrations have not always diminished. The cause of these trends is unknown, but it is likely to be due to several factors, including sourcing funding for production of botanical illustration, editorial preference for the use of illustrations or photographs, author preference for either illustrations or photographs, and moving to online publication, with no charges for colour reproduction. Moreover, the inclusion of botanical artists as co-authors in some scientific publications signals an ongoing and important role. Botanical illustration brings sharp focus and meticulous attention to detail regarding form and structure of plants.

  • Flora Graeca on the European Continent
    Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 71(Suppl. 2):109-122. 2019 109 doi: 10.26492/gbs71(suppl. 2).2019-09 Flora Graeca on the European continent H.W. Lack Botanischer Garten und Botanisches Museum Berlin, Freie Universität Berlin, Königin-Luise-Str. 6–8, 14195 Berlin, Germany [email protected] ABSTRACT. Flora Graeca is a work in ten folio volumes, published in London between 1806 and 1840. It is based on the botanical collections made by John Sibthorp during his travels in what is now Cyprus, Greece, Italy and Turkey and the pictorial documentation of the plants produced by Ferdinand Bauer. The text was written by James Edward Smith, Robert Brown and John Lindley. Flora Graeca was printed in a tiny edition with the result that many botanists considered it to be non-existent or as only a manuscript. This paper deals with the few copies of Flora Graeca kept today in libraries on the European continent and their historical backgrounds – three in Paris, one in Vienna and Darmstadt respectively, all apparently subscription copies, while the copies in St. Petersburg and Copenhagen were previously owned by Fredrick North, 5th Earl of Guildford, and John Platt. The botanical affiliations of the previous owners, among them Franz I, Emperor of Austria, and Ludwig I, Grand Duke of Hesse, are explained. The libraries on the European continent that have copies of the so-called Bohn reissue of Flora Graeca are listed. Particular attention is given to the Belgrade copy, a hybrid consisting of printed title matter with some of the landscapes copied by hand and the 966 engravings, whereas all text pages, indices and appendices have been written on a type writer.

CHAPMAN, D.T. MOORE, R.G. REES AND E.W. GROVES Note Search the Brown database using the fields noted below. Introduction The Investigator expedition was planned by the President of the Royal Society, Sir Joseph Banks (1743–1820), who himself had sailed to Australia with Lt. James Cook R.N. some thirty years earlier. It was commanded by Lt. Matthew Flinders R.N. (1774–1814) and on board was a small contingent of scientific gentlemen. These included Robert Brown as naturalist, Ferdinand Bauer (1760–1826) as natural history artist, William Westall (1781–1850) as landscape artist, John Allen (b.1775) as practical miner, and John Crosley (c.1763–1817) as astronomer — although Crosley left the expedition at the Cape of Good Hope. Publications on Brown's life and botanical work are available, including a biography of him by Mabberley (1985), and an account of his Australian collecting sites by Vallance (1990). There is a catalogue of his Zoological papers at the Natural History Museum, London, by Wheeler (1993) and of his Botanical papers by Moore & Beasley (1997). The Flora of Australia (1: 33, 2nd edn., 1999) also gives a bibliography of Brownian studies. Brown's Diary of the expedition is published by Vallance et al., (2001). The botanical collections and supporting documents For historical reasons Brown's main collection of dried Australian plants made between 1801 and 1805 (the top set), is at BM with smaller collections at E, K, and LE (Flora of Australia 1: 33).
