EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the regal beauty of the Crowned Pigeon (Goura cristata), a native bird of New Guinea and certain islands in the Pacific. The Crowned Pigeon, with its vibrant blue and iridescent green plumage, is adorned with an elaborate crest of feathers on its head, giving it an air of grandeur and nobility. This magnificent bird, with its piercing red eyes and distinctive wattles, was a favorite subject for naturalists and collectors during the 19th century. The photograph, taken in 1849, is a testament to the rich history of ornithology and the fascination that birds, particularly exotic ones, held for the scientific community during that era. The intricate details of the Crowned Pigeon's feathers, the texture of its skin, and the lifelike quality of its expression are all captured in this exquisite print. The Crowned Pigeon was first described by naturalist John Gould in 1836, based on a specimen collected in New Guinea. The bird was a popular subject for illustrations and prints, and this photograph is a beautiful example of the high-quality images produced during that time. The Crowned Pigeon remains a symbol of the natural wonders that continue to inspire and captivate us, and this historic print serves as a reminder of the important role that ornithology and natural history have played in our understanding and appreciation of the natural world.
