Description
This scientific illustration by Arthur Bartholomew was commissioned by Sir Frederick McCoy, Director of Museum Victoria as part of his zoological research. It forms part of the much larger Prodromus Collection. Many of the original illustrations in the collection informed the production of the two-volume work The Prodromus of the Zoology of Victoria which was Museum Victoria’s first major publication beginning in 1878. For over 40 years McCoy would bring specimens to Bartholomew to observe and nurture specifically for illustration. Many specimens, such as this impressive prawn from Mordialloc, were collected from areas that are now suburban Melbourne showing how such locations that have changed profoundly in the last 150 years. Bartholomew was methodical and his illustrations were consistently flawless.
