“The view underneath by Mr [Conrad] Martens is that of the monument erected on the North Shore of Botany bay, to the memory of La Perouse, and it will no doubt be regarded with a mournful interest, arising from his untimely fate.” Description from an unpublished manuscript for AW Scott, ’Australian Lepidoptera and their Transformations’ (1864-1898).
