EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-coloured lithograph plate, taken from John Gould's renowned work "The Birds of New Guinea" (1875-88), showcases the captivating beauty of the Lawes Parotia, scientifically known as Parotia lawesii. The Lawes Parotia, also referred to as Lawes' Parotia or Lawes' Bird of Paradise, is a native bird of the Melanesian region in New Guinea. The bird in this illustration is depicted perched gracefully on a hollow branch, its vibrant green plumage contrasting beautifully with the brown background. The Lawes Parotia is known for its distinctive long, filamentous feathers on its forehead and nape, which are displayed during courtship rituals to attract females. The male bird's collar is also adorned with elongated, wavy feathers. The Lawes Parotia is a medium-sized bird, with a long, curved beak and a cape of elongated, bristle-like feathers on its back. Its legs and feet are covered in feathers, and its eyes are large and bright. The Lawes Parotia is a forest-dwelling bird, and it is known to be a solitary and elusive species. This beautiful illustration, created in the 19th century, is a testament to the remarkable artistry and attention to detail of the time. The intricate hand-colouring adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the Lawes Parotia to life and showcasing its unique features in all their glory. This plate is a valuable addition to any collection of natural history or ornithological art.
