EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century artwork by Dutch artist Aert Schouman depicts a Yellow-wattled Lapwing, also known as Vanellus cristacus, in a striking full-length portrait. The Lapwing, a wading bird native to the low countries of Europe and Asia, is shown in profile with its distinctive yellow wattles and long, curved beak. Schouman masterfully captures the bird's intricate plumage, from its brown and white feathers to the subtle details of its wing structure. The Yellow-wattled Lapwing is a common sight along European and Asian shores, and was a subject of great interest during the Baroque era for both scientific and artistic pursuits. Schouman's meticulous drawing, executed in ink on paper, showcases the bird's hopeful and alert expression as it calls out to its surroundings. This artwork is a testament to the rich heritage of natural history and ornithology during the 18th century. Schouman's attention to detail and commitment to accurately representing the natural world make this a valuable addition to any collection of historical art and science. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, is home to this beautiful work by Aert Schouman, a renowned artist of the Dutch Golden Age.
