EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 80 of the Loten Collection presents a captivating and intricately detailed painting of a Ptilinopus sp. fruit dove, created by the skilled hand of Pieter Cornelis de Bevere around 1754-57. This exquisite illustration showcases the stunning anatomy of this avian species, with its long, slender body adorned with vibrant plumage. The bird's head is dominated by a bold, red eye and a distinctive, black cap, earning it the common name melanocephalus. The fruit dove, a member of the Columbidae family and the order Columbiformes within the class Sauropsida, is depicted perched gracefully on a branch, clutching a ripe, green fruit in its beak. The rich colors of the bird's feathers contrast beautifully with the lush, natural background, creating a harmonious and visually appealing composition. Pieter Cornelis de Bevere, born in 1710, was a renowned Dutch natural history artist, whose works were highly sought-after for their accuracy and artistic merit. This particular painting is a testament to his exceptional talent and dedication to capturing the essence of the natural world. The Loten Collection, a significant archive of coloured drawings of birds, mammals, insects, and plants, is home to this masterpiece and many others. The collection, which dates back to the 18th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of the past and the artistic achievements of the time.
