EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph, titled "Bluebellied Roller, 1893" by Johan Gerard Keulemans, transports us back to the enchanting world of nineteenth-century natural history. The exquisite details and vibrant colors bring this stunning bird species to life. The Bluebellied Roller, scientifically known as Coracias Cyanogaster, is elegantly perched on a branch against a pristine white background. Its rich brown plumage contrasts beautifully with its striking blue belly feathers. With its gaze turned away from the viewer, there is an air of mystery surrounding this magnificent creature. This artwork is part of Henry Eeles Dresser's renowned publication "A Monograph of the Coraciidae or family of the Rollers". Keulemans' meticulous attention to detail captures every feather and contour with precision. The artist's skillful hand tinting adds depth and dimension to the lithograph. As we delve into this piece, we are transported outdoors amidst lush foliage where these birds thrive. The Bluebellied Roller stands out amongst its surroundings with its brightly coloured plumage. It serves as a testament to both Dutch and British artistry during this period. Keulemans' lithograph invites us into a world where nature meets art in perfect harmony. This print not only showcases his talent but also pays homage to ornithology and our fascination with avian beauty. With no human presence in sight, we are left alone to appreciate the intricate details that make up this remarkable work of art—a true treasure for any lover of natural history or fine art alike.
