EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Dove, from Voyage Around the World on the Frigate Venus, 1836-39" takes us back in time to a remarkable journey into the South Pacific. Engraved by Mougeot and Thebaut in 1841, this colour lithograph by Paul Louis Oudart showcases his exceptional talent for capturing nature's beauty. The image depicts a stunning dove perched gracefully on a branch, its vibrant plumage shining with hues of yellow, green, and blue. Every detail of this delicate creature has been meticulously sketched, showcasing Oudart's dedication to ornithological study. This artwork is part of Admiral Abel Dupetit-Thouars' voyage around the world aboard the frigate Venus between 1836 and 1839. As an explorer venturing into uncharted territories, Dupetit-Thouars encountered numerous species previously unknown to Western science. This particular dove species is named Columba dupetit thouarsii in honor of his contributions to ornithology. The composition exudes tranquility as we witness this beautiful bird amidst lush foliage. It serves as a reminder of our planet's incredible biodiversity and invites us to appreciate the wonders that lie beyond our familiar horizons. Displayed within private collections today, this print continues to inspire awe and admiration for both its artistic merit and scientific significance. It stands as a testament to humanity's eternal curiosity about the natural world and our desire to explore it further.
