EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 330. The Shoveler, 1810-17" by Kenelm Henry Digby. Measuring at 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this artwork is housed in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The image features a painting with exquisite watercolor details and manuscript text surrounding it. This piece is part of "The Naturalists Companion" an illustrated manuscript created by Digby that includes drawings and descriptions of various animals, birds, fishes, serpents, insects, antiquities, and natural productions found in museums. In this particular illustration, we are introduced to the elegant Shoveler bird - a dabbling duck belonging to the Anatidae family known for its webbed feet and affinity for aquatic environments. Its vibrant plumage beautifully contrasts against the serene background. Originating from Australia's diverse fauna-rich landscapes such as South Australia or West Australian regions within Oceania, this avian specimen represents one of many fascinating species found on this continent. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured every intricate detail in this photograph: from the meticulously painted feathers to the handwritten labels accompanying them. This artwork not only serves as an aesthetic delight but also provides valuable insights into ornithology and zoological studies during Digby's time. As we admire this remarkable piece through Fine Art Finder's lens, let us appreciate both its artistic beauty and scientific significance while exploring nature's wonders captured within its frame.
