EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor painting, titled 'Loriculus sp. Hanging Parrot' (Large Series plate 28), is a stunning representation of a Loriculus species parrot from the John Reeves Collection of Zoological Drawings from Canton, China. Dated back to the 19th century, this artwork showcases the parrot's vibrant green plumage, perched gracefully on a branch adorned with lush, leafy foliage. The parrot appears to be holding a fruit in its beak, which is identified as Litchi chinensis, a popular angiosperm or flowering plant native to Asia. John Reeves (1774-1829), the British artist, created this masterpiece during his tenure as the Superintendent of the British Factory in Canton, China. Reeves was an accomplished naturalist and artist, who dedicated his time to documenting the natural history of China, particularly its avian population. His work was significant in advancing the scientific understanding of Asian birds during the early 19th century. The parrot, belonging to the Eudicot clade, is a member of the order Psittaciformes and the family Psittaculidae. The Loriculus genus comprises small, colorful parrots native to Southeast Asia. This hanging parrot is a testament to the intricate details and accuracy that Reeves brought to his work, making it an essential addition to any collection of ornithological illustrations. The painting's rich colors and intricate details provide a glimpse into the natural history of Canton, China, during the 19th century. The combination of the parrot's elegant pose, the lush foliage, and the exotic fruit creates a captivating image that continues to inspire and intrigue viewers today.
