EDITORS COMMENTS
Page 21. The Penciled Pheasant, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text) is a captivating ornithological print that showcases the exquisite beauty of the Chinese pheasant. Painted by Kenelm Henry Digby, this zoological illustration captures every intricate detail of the bird's vibrant plumage and distinctive features. The pheasant's label proudly displays its scientific name, Phasianidae, while its crest and red face add an air of regality to its appearance. The tail feathers are meticulously depicted with speckled patterns, further enhancing the bird's allure. What makes this artwork truly remarkable is the addition of handwritten manuscript text alongside the painting. This unique combination provides both artistic and educational value as it offers suitable descriptions for a vast variety of animals found in museums during Digby's time. Displayed at Mitchell Library in New South Wales, Australia, this piece not only celebrates Australia's diverse fauna but also serves as a testament to Digby's dedication to accurately capturing nature through his illustrations. It stands as a valuable resource for ornithologists and natural history enthusiasts alike. With its black and white aesthetic and meticulous attention to detail, Page 21. The Penciled Pheasant invites viewers into the world of avian wonders while paying homage to Australia's rich natural heritage.
