EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning artwork depicts the Reef Heron, also known as Matuku Moana in Maori and Kotuku in Northland, New Zealand. The Reef Heron is a native wading bird of New Zealand and is a member of the Ardeidae family, which includes herons, egrets, and bitterns. This beautiful watercolor painting is by the renowned Dutch naturalist artist, John Gerrard Keulemans, and was published in Sir Walter Lawry Buller's "A History of the Birds of New Zealand" in 1888. The Reef Heron is shown in its typical habitat, standing gracefully on a rocky shoreline, with its long, slender legs submerged in the water. The bird's distinctive plumage is on full display, with its white feathers contrasting against its dark bill and legs. Keulemans' meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns on the bird's feathers and the textured representation of the rocky shoreline. This artwork is a testament to the natural beauty of New Zealand's avian population and the skill of one of the greatest natural history illustrators of all time.
