EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two unidentified birds, beautifully captured in watercolor on paper by an unknown artist from the 18th century. The artwork is part of Volume 04: Zoology of N. Holland etc. , housed at the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The image reveals a remarkable display of avian fauna, showcasing the rich diversity found in Australia's natural history. The birds are depicted perched on a branch, their brown feathers contrasting against the vibrant green background. The attention to detail and precision in this ornithological masterpiece is evident as every feather and contour has been meticulously painted with care. These life-sized representations provide valuable insights into the world of Australian bird species during that era. Watermarked with Britannia, this folio album measures 50.3 x 39.2 cm, making it an impressive piece that demands admiration for its artistic merit and scientific significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when exploration and discovery were paramount in understanding our natural world.
