EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "F. 11 Pigeon. New Caledonia, 1772-75" takes us back to the era of Captain Cook's voyages and offers a glimpse into the natural wonders discovered during that time. Created by Admiral Isaac Smith and others, this watercolor illustration showcases one of the South Sea birds encountered on Cook's second voyage. The image features a beautifully detailed pigeon perched gracefully on a branch. The bird's plumage is predominantly grey and white, creating an exquisite contrast against its surroundings. With meticulous precision, Smith captures every intricate detail of the avian creature, highlighting its delicate feathers and elegant posture. Measuring 57.5 x 39 cm within an album held at Mitchell Library in the State Library of New South Wales, this artwork serves as both a scientific record and an artistic masterpiece. It contributes to our understanding of ornithology and zoological illustrations from that period. As we admire this stunning portrayal, we are transported to the enchanting landscapes of New Caledonia in the late 18th century. This piece not only celebrates nature's beauty but also pays homage to the explorers who ventured into uncharted territories in search of knowledge about our planet's diverse fauna. With its historical significance and aesthetic appeal, "F. 11 Pigeon" stands as a testament to human curiosity and appreciation for Earth's natural history—a timeless reminder that art can bridge gaps between cultures, eras, and disciplines like ornithology.
