Adam Forster (1848-1928) began life as Carl Ludwig August Wiarda in East Friesland (Germany). Forster was a skilled botanical artist whose goal was to paint one thousand Australian wildflowers. To this end, on weekends, he travelled all over the Sydney region and country New South Wales to sketch and collect plant specimens.
The National Library of Australia has over 900 of Adam Forster's superb watercolours, 90 of which are presented here as full-colour plates. A portfolio of these paintings follows a short biography of Forster by author Christobel Mattingley.
