EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph print showcases an original manuscript by the 13th Earl of Derby, John McGillivray, dating back to May 1845. The manuscript is a significant contribution to the natural history records of the Victorian era, featuring detailed illustrations and notes on both mammals (1-8, including Pteropus, Macropus, and others) and birds (1-40, ranging from Porzana to Nycticorax). John McGillivray (1812-1845) was an accomplished Scottish naturalist and explorer who accompanied Sir James Frazer on an expedition to Port Essington, North Australia, in the mid-19th century. He collaborated closely with Charles and John Gould, renowned publishers of natural history illustrations, to produce this comprehensive record of the region's fauna. The manuscript is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and dedication to scientific discovery that characterized the Victorian era. Each page is filled with intricate ink drawings and precise notes, providing valuable insights into the natural history of the region. The illustrations of mammals and birds are particularly noteworthy, as they offer some of the earliest and most accurate depictions of these species. The manuscript is a rare and valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the world of natural history exploration during the 19th century. Its inclusion in the John Gould Australian Collection is a testament to its importance in the annals of scientific discovery and the preservation of natural history records.
