Plate 57 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 5 (1873): A Stunning Hand-Coloured Lithograph of the Immature Glaucous Gull (Larus hyperboreus) This exquisite hand-coloured lithograph, Plate 57 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 5 (1873), showcases the intricate details of an immature Glaucous Gull (Larus hyperboreus). The gull is depicted in its grey back plumage, with its long, pointed wings extended, and its distinctive bill open slightly. The anatomy of the bird is rendered with remarkable accuracy, from the long, webbed feet to the intricately patterned feathers on its back. John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain was a groundbreaking work in the field of ornithology, featuring meticulously detailed illustrations of over 700 species of birds native to the British Isles. This particular plate, featuring the Glaucous Gull, showcases the artist's skill in capturing the essence of this Arctic gull, which is not a common sight in Great Britain but occasionally visits during the winter months. The Glaucous Gull is a large gull, belonging to the Laridae family and the Charadriiformes order. Its name, "glaucous," refers to the bluish-grey coloration on its back and wings, which distinguishes it from other gulls. The gull's bill is long and pointed, and its feet are webbed, making it well-adapted for swimming and diving in the icy waters of the Arctic. This stunning illustration provides a glimpse into the natural world of the nineteenth century, offering a glimpse into the intricacies of avian anatomy and the beauty of the Glaucous Gull. The hand-colouring adds an extra layer of detail and vibrancy, bringing the gull to life and making it a true work of art.
