EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration showcases the exquisite details of the White-tailed Robin (Myiomela leucura), a passerine bird native to the Himalayas and other parts of Asia. The illustration, created during the 19th century, captures the bird in a moment of repose as it perches on a long, slender branch. The White-tailed Robin is characterized by its striking blue plumage, most notably on its forehead and cheeks, which contrasts beautifully with its white underparts and tail. The illustration is a testament to the meticulous work of renowned naturalist and artist, Brian Houghton Hodgson (1800-1894). Hodgson, a British civil servant and natural historian, spent much of his career in Nepal, where he made significant contributions to the study of the region's natural history. This illustration is a joint effort between Hodgson and another artist, Rajman, and is a prime example of the high-quality work produced during the nineteenth century. The White-tailed Robin is a member of the Muscicapidae family, also known as Old World flycatchers, and is a common sight in the forests of the Himalayas and other parts of Asia. This illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the anatomy and appearance of this intriguing bird, offering a window into the natural world of the past.
