EDITORS COMMENTS
Page 105. The Goss Hawk, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text) captures the essence of ornithological exploration and artistic mastery. This exquisite print, created by Kenelm Henry Digby, showcases a magnificent brown Goss Hawk perched on a branch, its regal presence beautifully captured in watercolor and accompanied by handwritten manuscript text. The artwork is part of The Naturalists Companion, an illustrated manuscript that meticulously documents various species of Quadrupeds, Birds, Fishes, Serpent and Insects. Digby's drawings are based on both living animals and stuffed specimens found in prestigious museums like the College and Dublin Society. With meticulous attention to detail, this zoological illustration not only portrays the physical attributes of the bird but also provides valuable information about its habitat and behavior. The labeled depiction offers insights into Australia's rich fauna as it showcases an Australian bird of prey belonging to the Accipitridae family. Displayed at Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this artwork serves as a testament to Digby's talent as both an artist and naturalist. It invites viewers into a world where art meets science; where every stroke brings us closer to understanding the intricate beauty of nature. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of our innate curiosity about the animal kingdom – a curiosity that drives us to explore new frontiers in search of knowledge.
