EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 71. A Macaw, 1810-17 (w/c & manuscript text)" by Kenelm Henry Digby. The image features a stunning blue and yellow macaw, scientifically known as Ara ararauna, perched on a branch amidst a vibrant tropical setting. This ornithological masterpiece is part of "The Naturalists Companion" an illustrated manuscript created by Digby. The meticulous attention to detail in this zoological illustration is evident through the intricate brushstrokes and carefully handwritten text that accompanies it. The label provides valuable information about the bird's species, Psittacidae family, and its colorful plumage. Digby's work not only captures the beauty of this exotic avian creature but also serves as a testament to his dedication to documenting various natural specimens accurately. His illustrations were meticulously copied from living animals or stuffed specimens found in museums across Dublin Society and College. Housed at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this artwork represents an important contribution to Australia's rich natural history collection. It offers viewers a glimpse into the diverse fauna found in Oceania while highlighting Australia's unique wildlife heritage. Through Bridgeman Images' reproduction of this remarkable piece, art enthusiasts can now appreciate Digby's talent for blending scientific accuracy with artistic finesse in capturing nature's wonders on paper.
