EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases page 251 of "The Naturalists Companion" by Kenelm Henry Digby. The image features a stunning depiction of the female Golden and Pied Pheasant, beautifully rendered in watercolor and accompanied by manuscript text. Measuring 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this artwork is housed in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales. "The Naturalists Companion" is an illustrated manuscript that presents a wide range of quadrupeds, birds, fishes, serpents, and insects found in both living animals and stuffed specimens from various museums. Additionally, it includes drawings of antiquities and natural productions contained within these museums. In this particular illustration, we are treated to a side view of the Chinese Pheasant (Chrysolophus pictus), known for its colorful plumage and gallinaceous nature. The label provides valuable information about this species as well as handwritten notes that enhance our understanding. With its meticulous attention to detail and artistic finesse, this zoological illustration offers a glimpse into Australia's rich fauna while also serving as an invaluable resource for ornithologists and natural history enthusiasts alike. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' fine art finder collection, we can appreciate the beauty captured on page 251 of "The Naturalists Companion" celebrating both the scientific exploration of wildlife and the artistic talent behind its portrayal.
