EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor drawing, number 19 of 61 in Lady Mary Bentinck's collection of avian depictions from the Himalaya Mountains, showcases the Lesser Yellownape, Picus chlorolophus. Dated 1833, the painting is an intriguing glimpse into the natural history of the Himalayas during the early 19th century. The Lesser Yellownape, also known as the Green-goldenback Woodpecker, is a small picid bird native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. Known for their distinctive green and gold plumage, these woodpeckers are adept climbers and are often found in forests and woodlands. Lady Mary Bentinck (1800-1851), an Anglo-Indian socialite and patron of the arts, amassed an impressive collection of watercolor drawings of birds from the Himalayas during her time in India. The exact identity of the artist responsible for this particular piece remains unknown, but the skillful rendering of the Lesser Yellownape's intricate plumage and detailed anatomical features suggest the hand of a skilled artist. The Himalayas, a mountain range stretching over 1,500 miles from Pakistan to Bhutan, have long been a source of fascination for naturalists and explorers. This watercolor painting offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the region, which is home to a vast array of sauropsid species, including birds, reptiles, and amphibians. The Sauropsida, or reptile-bird clade, is a diverse group of animals characterized by their backbone and the presence of a diaphragm. The Lesser Yellownape painting is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the natural world, as well as the artistic talents of the unknown artist and Lady Mary Bentinck's dedication to documenting the avian species of the Himalayas. This historical work continues to captivate viewers with its vibrant colors, meticulous detail, and the fascinating story it tells of a bygone era in natural history.
