EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Page 80. The great Eagle. From Hudsons Bay. 1810-17" transports us back in time to the early 19th century, immersing us in the world of natural history exploration and illustration. This exquisite piece, created by Kenelm Henry Digby, showcases a stunning watercolor and manuscript text composition. Measuring at an impressive size of 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this artwork is housed within the prestigious Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales. It forms part of "The Naturalists Companion" a comprehensive collection featuring drawings and descriptions of various animals, insects, antiquities, and natural productions. In this particular image, we are treated to an ornithological marvel - a majestic bird known as the great eagle perched gracefully on a branch. Its regal presence is accentuated by meticulously detailed feathers captured through Digby's skilled brushstrokes. What makes this piece even more intriguing is its handwritten label that provides valuable information about the species depicted - accipitridae or bird of prey from Australia's Hudsons Bay region during the years 1810-17. This zoological illustration not only serves as a testament to Digby's artistic talent but also highlights his dedication to documenting nature's wonders for future generations to appreciate and study. With its rich historical significance and aesthetic allure, this photograph print from Fine Art Finder offers viewers a glimpse into both the scientific curiosity and artistic mastery prevalent during that era in our understanding of fauna found across Oceania.
