EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 15 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 4 (1873), depicts the Common Quail, or Coturnix coturnix, in stunning detail. This hand-coloured lithograph captures the quail in its natural habitat, with the verdant meadow providing a beautiful backdrop to this charming bird. The Common Quail is a member of the Galliformes family, known for its fluffy appearance and distinctive "bib" or chin shield, which is more prominent in males. The Common Quail is a ground-dwelling bird and is often found in open country, grasslands, and meadows. They are native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa, and are well adapted to daytime living. This image captures the quail in its daytime habitat, with its feathers ruffled slightly, giving it a soft and inviting appearance. The Common Quail is a popular game bird and was widely hunted during the 19th century, making this illustration a valuable record of the species during that time. The intricate hand-colouring adds to the detail and beauty of the image, making it a prized addition to any natural history collection. John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain is a seminal work in the field of ornithology, and this plate is a testament to the skill and dedication of the artist and the lithographers who brought it to life. The Common Quail remains a beloved species, and this image continues to capture the imagination and admiration of bird enthusiasts and collectors alike.
