EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 300. The Magpie, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text)" by Kenelm Henry Digby. Measuring at 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this artwork can be found in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The image features a beautifully detailed illustration of a magpie, meticulously captured with watercolors and accompanied by handwritten manuscript text. This work is part of "The Naturalists Companion" an illustrated manuscript created by Digby that contains drawings and descriptions of various animals, including quadrupeds, birds, fishes, serpents, and insects. The magpie depicted in the artwork belongs to the corvidae family and exhibits striking black and white plumage. Its presence evokes a sense of awe for Australia's diverse fauna as it represents one of its iconic avian species. Digby's illustrations were carefully crafted either from living animals or stuffed specimens found in museums across Dublin Society and College. Additionally, his manuscript includes drawings depicting antiquities and natural productions found within these museums. This print not only captures the beauty of Digby's ornithological masterpiece but also serves as a testament to Australia's rich natural history heritage preserved within institutions like the Mitchell Library.
