EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 11. The Skull of a Babirousa; Untitled: antlers; the Skull of a Sea Lyon; a Lizard, 1810-17" by Kenelm Henry Digby. Measuring at an impressive 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this artwork can be found in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The image features an array of zoological illustrations meticulously captured by Digby himself. With handwritten manuscript text accompanying each drawing, this piece is truly a testament to his dedication as a naturalist and artist. Intriguingly labeled with terms like otariidae, cervidae, and babirusa, these illustrations offer insight into various animal species from Australia's rich fauna. From sea lions to lizards and even deer pigs, every detail has been carefully depicted - from their intricate skeletons and bones to their majestic antlers. Digby's passion for zoology shines through in his precise paintings that accurately portray both living animals and stuffed specimens found in museums across Dublin Society and College. As we delve into this extraordinary artwork held within the Mitchell Library's collection, we are transported back to the early 19th century when scientific exploration was at its peak. This print allows us to appreciate not only Digby's artistic talent but also his contribution to our understanding of Australia's diverse wildlife. Through Bridgeman Images' fine art finder platform, we have the privilege of exploring remarkable pieces like this one that bridge the gap between science and art while preserving historical knowledge for generations to come.
