EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 25 from Edward Lear's Illustrations of the Family of Psittacidae or Parrots, featuring the Antipodes Parakeet or Cyanoramphus unicolor, is a stunning hand-coloured lithograph dating back to 1832. This beautiful Victorian-era illustration showcases the Antipodes Parakeet perched gracefully on a branch, its vibrant green plumage contrasting against the brown background. The parakeet's distinctive hooked beak and fan-like tail are also clearly visible. Edward Lear, the renowned English artist, created this illustration as part of his comprehensive work on the parrot family, showcasing the diverse range of species within the order Psittaciformes. The Antipodes Parakeet, native to Antipodes Island in the South Pacific, was a particular subject of interest due to its unique characteristics and limited distribution. The intricate details of the parakeet's feathers are expertly rendered in this hand-coloured lithograph, with each hue meticulously applied to bring the bird to life. The illustration's historical significance lies in its contribution to the scientific record of avian species during the 19th century, providing valuable insights into the natural world of the time. The Antipodes Parakeet, also known as the Antipodes Island Parakeet, is a critically endangered species with a population of only around 2,000 individuals. This illustration serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving such unique and captivating creatures for future generations.
