EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art titled "Page 406. The Willow Wren, 1810-17" by Kenelm Henry Digby. Measuring at an impressive size of 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this painting is housed in the prestigious Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The artwork itself is part of "The Naturalists Companion" a comprehensive collection containing drawings and descriptions of various animals, including quadrupeds, birds, fishes, serpents, and insects. This illustrated manuscript was meticulously created by Digby and features both watercolor and manuscript text. In this particular image captured by Bridgeman Images, we are treated to a side view of the exquisite willow warbler (Phylloscopus trochilus), perched delicately on a branch near the water's edge. Its vibrant plumage stands out against the serene backdrop as it captures our attention with its beauty. With meticulous attention to detail evident in every stroke and handwritten label adorning the page, this artwork exemplifies Digby's passion for natural history and ornithology. It serves as a testament to his dedication in accurately depicting these creatures either from living animals or stuffed specimens found within museums. As we admire this stunning portrayal of Australian fauna within its native habitat—a nod to South Australia and West Australia—we can't help but appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such intricate illustrations and the scientific significance they hold for understanding our natural world.
