Plate 55 from John Gould's The Birds of New Guinea, Volume 5 (1875-88), presents a stunning hand-coloured lithograph of the Wallaces Fruit-dove, Ptilinopus wallacii. The illustration, featuring the elegant avian species in its natural habitat, was produced during the 19th century by the renowned ornithological artist, John Gould, under the supervision of naturalist Jonathan Elphick. The Wallaces Fruit-dove is depicted perched gracefully on a branch, its vibrant green plumage contrasting beautifully against the grey bark of the tree. With its distinctive red eyes and orange-red bills, this fruit dove is a captivating sight to behold. The bird clutches a ripe fruit in its beak, emphasizing its dietary preferences and the essential role it plays in the ecosystem. This exquisite illustration is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic mastery of the time. The intricate patterns on the bird's feathers, the lifelike texture of the tree bark, and the realistic representation of the fruit are all evidence of the exceptional craftsmanship that went into creating this work of art. As a significant contribution to the field of ornithology, The Birds of New Guinea series by John Gould and Jonathan Elphick remains an invaluable resource for understanding the diverse avian life of the region. This particular plate, showcasing the Wallaces Fruit-dove, offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of New Guinea and the artistry of the 19th-century naturalists who dedicated their lives to documenting it.
