EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph, titled "Ptarmigan (Summer Plumage)" by John Gould, transports us to the enchanting world of ornithology. The exquisite print showcases a Lagopus Mutus, commonly known as a Ptarmigan, in its resplendent summer plumage. Gould's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his brush, bringing this magnificent bird to life on paper. The vibrant hues and delicate shading capture the essence of the Ptarmigan's natural beauty with remarkable precision. The Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth House graciously preserve this artwork, which originally appeared in Gould's renowned publication "The Birds of Great Britain". Printed between 1862 and 1873 in London, these illustrations have stood the test of time as invaluable resources for avian enthusiasts. Hans Richter's masterful engravings played an integral role in creating this lithograph. Their collaboration resulted in a visual masterpiece that continues to inspire awe and admiration among art lovers and bird aficionados alike. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' permission and cooperation from Chatsworth Settlement Trustees, we are able to appreciate this extraordinary piece without any commercial implications. Let yourself be captivated by the intricate details and stunning colors of this hand-coloured litho - an ode to nature's wonders through the lens of John Gould's artistic genius.
