EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 412. The Cuckoo, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text)" by Kenelm Henry Digby. Measuring at an impressive 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 painting and handwritten manuscript text that accompanies it. This piece is part of "The Naturalists Companion" a comprehensive collection containing drawings and descriptions of various animals, including quadrupeds, birds, fishes, serpents, and insects. Kenelm Henry Digby meticulously copied these illustrations from both living animals and stuffed specimens found in museums such as the College and Dublin Society's collections. Additionally, this illustrated manuscript also includes drawings of antiquities and other natural productions housed within these museums. In this particular artwork on page 412, we are treated to a side view depiction of the cuckoo bird from the cuculidae family. Native to Australia and commonly found in regions like South Australia or Western Australia, this avian species adds an element of Australian fauna to Digby's extensive work. With its label carefully labelled with handwritten notes alongside the intricate painting itself, this piece offers viewers a glimpse into the world of ornithology and zoological exploration during the early 19th century.
