EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century illustration, Plate 83 from the Loten Collection of Coloured Drawings of Birds, Mammals, Insects & Plants, features the Sri Lanka Woodpigeon or Columba torringtoni, perched gracefully on a long, mottled branch. Painted by the skilled hand of Pieter Cornelius de Bevere between 1754 and 1757, this avian beauty is depicted with remarkable detail and accuracy. The Columbidae, or pigeon and dove family, is characterized by their cooing sounds and plump bodies. The Sri Lanka Woodpigeon, native to the Asian subcontinent, is a mottled, medium-sized bird with a distinctive long collar of feathers around its neck. The bird's plumage is a mix of brown, grey, and green hues, blending seamlessly with its natural habitat. In the background, a vibrant angiosperm or flowering plant blooms, adding a splash of color to the otherwise monochromatic scene. Angiosperms, a group of flowering plants, are characterized by their seeds enclosed in an ovary, and make up the vast majority of plant species in the world today. The illustration is a testament to the natural history art of the 18th century, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and the appreciation for the beauty of the natural world. Pieter Cornelius de Bevere, a Flemish artist, was known for his exceptional talent in capturing the essence of his subjects, and this illustration is no exception. Joan Gideon, the collector of the Loten Collection, amassed an impressive collection of natural history illustrations during his travels in the Dutch East Indies from 1722 to 1781. The Loten Collection is now a valuable resource for researchers and historians, providing insights into the natural history of the region during the 18th century.
