Title	Barrossa Ranges
Description	John Skinner Prout (1805-1876) born in England Prout emigrated to Australia in 1840 with his wife and seven children. He soon became involved in the colonial life as a commercial artist, lecturing and publishing his own series of lithographs titled , Sydney Illustrated and Tasmania Illustrated in 1844-1846. His time in Tasmania teaching drawing, sketching and watercolours created interest and fostered a number of colonial amateurs. He is represented in all major institutional collections. This fine engraving by the John Skinner Prout is from the original edition of Edwin Carton Booths, series titled, “Australia Illustrated”, produced soon after the the discovery of gold in Australia. The great interest created by the gold discovery created a a demand from prospective emigrants and the wealthy who wanted to invest in Australia and needed information on the colony. This series intended as an elaborate and exhaustive survey took ten years to produce. A number of artists were commissioned to provide sketches and drawings for this monumental endeavour, many accompanied the Duke of Edinburgh who travelled to Australia on board the H.M.S. Galatea.
