EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph showcases the exquisite beauty of the Gorgeted Sun Angel, a species known for its vibrant plumage and graceful demeanor. Created by renowned artist John Gould in the 19th century, this print is part of his iconic collection "The Birds of Great Britain". Gould's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he masterfully captures the delicate features and intricate patterns of this majestic bird. The Gorgeted Sun Angel's iridescent feathers shimmer with an array of radiant colors, creating a mesmerizing display that seems to come alive on paper. Displayed against a backdrop of lush foliage, the bird appears poised and regal. Its slender body and elongated tail feathers add to its ethereal charm, while its distinctive gorget - a patch of brightly colored feathers around its throat - serves as a striking focal point. This print not only celebrates the natural beauty found within avian species but also pays homage to Gould's exceptional talent as an ornithological artist. It serves as a testament to his dedication in capturing these winged wonders with unparalleled precision. Now preserved within the Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth House, this artwork continues to inspire awe and admiration for both nature enthusiasts and art lovers alike. Through Bridgeman Images' reproduction, we are granted access into Gould's world where birds take flight from ink onto paper – forever immortalized in their resplendent glory.
