EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and wonder of a painting by Dutch artist Roelandt Savery, featuring the now-extinct dodo alongside other ducks, macaws, and rails. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these creatures to life on the page, showcasing Savery's skill as an artist.
Presented to the British Museum in 1759 by George Edwards, this piece has stood the test of time as a testament to both the artistry of Savery and the curiosity surrounding extinct species like the dodo. The inclusion of various bird species adds depth and interest to the composition, creating a rich tapestry of avian life.
Illustrated by Joseph Dinkel from Hugh Edwin Strickland and Alexander Gordon Melville's book "The Dodo and its Kindred" in 1848, this print serves as a valuable historical document that sheds light on our understanding of these fascinating birds. The combination of artistry and scientific observation makes this piece a true treasure for any admirer of natural history.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when these majestic creatures roamed freely. It is a reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve our planet's biodiversity for future generations to come.
