EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Sarah Stone, a renowned English artist from the 18th century. Titled "Page 15. Golden Winged Pidgeon. Now known as a Forest Bronzewing Pigeon" this watercolor painting is part of an album featuring 31 original illustrations of Australian fauna. The attention to detail in Stone's work is evident in this piece, as she beautifully captures the intricate features of the Forest Bronzewing Pigeon. The bird's iridescent wing patch shimmers with shades of gold and bronze, creating a stunning visual effect. Measuring approximately 33.8 x 25.1 cm, this artwork transports us back to the natural history discoveries made during the late 1700s. It offers a glimpse into Australia's diverse wildlife and serves as an important contribution to ornithological and zoological illustration. Housed at Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, this print holds historical significance beyond its artistic value. It represents an era when exploration and scientific discovery were at their peak. As we admire Stone's skillful rendering of this avian beauty, we are reminded not only of her talent but also her dedication to capturing nature's wonders on paper for generations to come. This print truly exemplifies why Sarah Stone remains one of England's most celebrated artists in both fine art and natural history genres.
