EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 27 from Edward Lear's Illustrations of the Family of Psittacidae, or Parrots (1832): A Striking Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Nymphicus hollandicus, the Cockatiel Edward Lear's Illustrations of the Family of Psittacidae, or Parrots, published in 1832, is a remarkable work showcasing the natural history of the parrot family. This hand-coloured lithograph, Plate 27, depicts Nymphicus hollandicus, the cockatiel, a popular and beloved pet species of cockatoo. The image captures the cockatiel in a lifelike pose, perched gracefully on a long, gnarled branch. Its crest is fully unfurled, displaying the distinctive fan-like plumes that give this bird its name. The cockatiel's grey body is adorned with yellow patches on its cheeks, adding a splash of colour to the otherwise muted palette. Its beak is curved and long, perfectly suited for cracking open the nuts and seeds that form a significant part of its diet. The intricate detail in this lithograph is truly awe-inspiring, with each feather and plume meticulously rendered in colour. Lear's masterful use of shading and perspective adds depth and dimension to the image, making the cockatiel appear as if it could take flight at any moment. This illustration is a testament to Lear's exceptional artistic skills and his deep appreciation for the natural world. As one of the most prominent naturalists and illustrators of the 19th century, Lear's work continues to inspire and captivate audiences today. The Plate 27 lithograph of the cockatiel is an essential addition to any collection of natural history or ornithology, and a beautiful reminder of the rich biodiversity of the avian world.
