EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century artwork depicts the Double-banded Sandgrouse (Pteroclus bicinctus), a remarkable bird native to the African continent. Created by Dutch artist Robert Jacob Gordon around 1778, this exquisite drawing showcases the intricate details of the sandgrouse's plumage and distinctive markings. The artwork, executed in chalk and ink on paper, captures the sandgrouse in a close-up profile view, with its speckled, double-banded breast and brown feathers standing out against the plain background. Gordon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the fine lines and delicate shading used to depict the sandgrouse's textured feathers and intricate patterned markings. The lettering at the bottom left corner of the drawing, penned in ink, reveals the title and artist's name, adding to the piece's historical significance. As a dedicated naturalist and ornithologist, Gordon's sketchbook entries provide valuable insights into the natural history of the Low Countries and beyond, including this stunning representation of the Double-banded Sandgrouse. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, is a testament to the artist's skill and the enduring allure of the natural world.
