Plate 2 from Edward Lear's Illustrations of the Family of Psittacidae, or Parrots (1832): A Stunning Hand-Coloured Lithograph of the Salmon-Crested Cockatoo, Cacatua moluccensis This exquisite hand-coloured lithograph, Plate 2 from Edward Lear's Illustrations of the Family of Psittacidae, or Parrots (1832), showcases the captivating beauty of the Salmon-Crested Cockatoo, scientifically known as Cacatua moluccensis. The image, created during the 19th century, showcases the bird's intricate plumage and distinctive crest. The Salmon-Crested Cockatoo is a large, white parrot with a prominent, pinkish-orange crest that resembles a feathered mohawk. The bird's beak is long and curved, perfect for cracking open hard nuts and seeds. In this illustration, the cockatoo is perched gracefully on a branch, its feathers ruffled slightly, revealing the intricate patterns and textures. Edward Lear, a renowned English artist, created this illustration as part of his comprehensive work on the parrot family, which was one of the most extensive and accurate records of the species at the time. The illustration's meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colours bring the Salmon-Crested Cockatoo to life, providing a window into the natural world of the 19th century. The illustration's rich history is evident in its aged appearance, with the paper showing signs of wear and the colours retaining their brilliance despite the passage of time. This stunning piece of art is not only a testament to Lear's artistic skill but also a valuable record of the natural history of the Salmon-Crested Cockatoo and the broader parrot family.
