EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning beauty of a Salmon-crested or Moluccan cockatoo, scientifically known as Cacatua moluccensis. The image captures the essence of this regal bird with its vibrant plumage and majestic crest. The handcoloured woodblock engraving was skillfully created by William Hayes, an accomplished artist from the 18th century. This particular artwork is part of his renowned collection titled "The Natural History of Birds" which was published by Brightly and Childs in Bungay, Suffolk in 1815. Hayes' attention to detail is evident in every stroke, bringing out the intricate patterns and textures of the cockatoo's feathers. The vivid colors used in this piece beautifully complement each other, enhancing the overall visual appeal. Salmon-crested or Moluccan cockatoos are native to Indonesia and are highly sought after for their striking appearance and charismatic personalities. Their distinctive salmon-colored crests make them easily recognizable among other species. This print not only celebrates the exquisite beauty of these birds but also serves as a testament to Hayes' talent as an artist. It offers viewers a glimpse into nature's wonders while reminding us of our responsibility to protect and preserve these magnificent creatures for future generations to admire.
