Ria Winters - A Treasury Of Endemic Fauna Of Mauritius and Rodrigues - 2011
This wonderful publication deals with the endemic species of the Indian ocean islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues. The author describes the extinct and extant birds and animals in word and art. The book is illustrated with the authors drawings and paintings. Full colour.
In 2009 Ria Winters visited Mauritius on behalf of the Artists for Conservation Foundation (AFC) with the goal to render and portray the endemic wildlife. The journey resulted in a body of work of more than thirty paintings and hundreds of photographs. Two and a half years later the Blue Penny Museum in Port Louis organised an exhibition with the theme "The last gong for the Dugong" showing paintings, sculptures and antique books of extinct and endangered species of the Mascarene islands. Together with the exhibition the book "A Treasury of Endemic Fauna of Mauritius and Rodrigues" was launched. The book is both a catalogue of the paintings shown in the exhibition as well as a personal view of the artist on the local wildlife.
