Richea scorparia in bloom at Barn Bluff, Cradle Mountain-Lake St. Clair National Park, Tasmania
Morning light illuminates flowering scoparia, while the peak of Barn Bluff rises above dissipating mist beyond.
Barn Bluff is a dramatic peak in the Cradle Mountain/Lake St. Clair National Park. It rises to a height of 1559m, just 14m short of the nearby Cradle Mountain. On it’s slopes grows the tough yet beautiful Richea scoparia. This alpine plant, while incredibly scratchy and difficult to walk through, displays spectacular white, pink and red candle-like flowers from September to October. Scoparia are iconic of Tasmania’s west coast, alpine and subalpine regions.
Pigment ink print on archival Canson Platine fibre rag paper, 100% cotton.
The images by Peter Dombrovskis have been through an exhaustive remastering process. The high resolution scans from the National Library have been painstakingly retouched to remove embedded dust and scratches. To ensure accurate colour rendition, they have been referenced against publications that Peter was proud of and the prints have been checked and approved by Liz Dombrovskis. The images are printed with pigment ink on Canson Platine Fibre Rag, a 100% cotton rag archival paper. These prints will last over 100 years and are amongst the most archival processes currently available. Remastered by fine art printer, Simon Olding, exclusively for Wild Island Tasmania.
