EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 3 from John Gould's "The Birds of Great Britain," Volume 4 (1873): A Striking Hand-Colored Lithograph of Columba livia, the Rock Dove John Gould's "The Birds of Great Britain" was a comprehensive and exquisitely detailed ornithological record of the avian species found in Britain during the 19th century. This hand-colored lithograph, Plate 3 from Volume 4, showcases the Columba livia, commonly known as the rock dove or the feral pigeon. The iridescent green and grey plumage of the Columba livia is beautifully rendered in this meticulously crafted illustration. The long, slender neck and graceful curve of the bird's back are accentuated by the undulating cliffside landscape in the background. The daytime setting, with the sun casting long shadows on the landform, adds a sense of tranquility and serenity to the scene. The Columba livia is a member of the Columbidae family, and is one of the most widespread and adaptable birds in the world. Originally native to Europe and Asia, the species has been introduced to many other parts of the world and is now considered a feral species in many urban areas. The geomorphology of the Columba livia is well-represented in this illustration, with the broad, rounded wings and the short, sturdy legs and feet. The bird's head is turned slightly to the side, revealing the delicate features of its beak and the intricately patterned feathers on its neck. This hand-colored lithograph is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Victorian era's ornithological illustrators, and remains a valuable record of the natural history of the Columba livia and the British Isles.
