EDITORS COMMENTS
Page 88. The Common Crane, 1810-17: A Captivating Glimpse into Natural History". This stunning print showcases an exquisite piece of art titled "Page 88. The Common Crane, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text)" by Kenelm Henry Digby. Measuring at an impressive size of 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this ornithological masterpiece can be found in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The artwork itself is a meticulous zoological illustration that captures the essence of the majestic Common Crane with remarkable precision and attention to detail. With its long neck gracefully extended and slender legs elegantly poised for wading, this bird truly exudes grace and beauty. What makes this piece even more intriguing is the inclusion of handwritten manuscript text alongside the painting. This unique combination adds depth to our understanding of these magnificent creatures as it provides suitable descriptions and insights into their behavior and habitat. As we delve deeper into this image, we are transported back in time to when naturalists meticulously observed living animals or studied stuffed specimens in museums like those belonging to Dublin Society and College. This illustrated manuscript by Kenelm Henry Digby serves as a testament to his dedication towards documenting not only birds but also other fascinating aspects of nature such as antiquities and natural productions. With its label carefully identifying various features such as the long necked gruidae species within the gruiformes order, this artwork exemplifies both scientific accuracy and artistic brilliance.
