EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the vibrant beauty of a Superb parrot, scientifically known as Polytelis swainsonii. The image showcases the intricate details of this exotic bird's plumage, highlighting its striking green and yellow feathers. With its elegant posture and captivating gaze, the Superb parrot exudes an air of regality. The artwork is a handcoloured copperplate engraving by William Lizars, based on an illustration by Edward Lear from Prideaux J. Selby's "The Natural History of Parrots". Published in 1836 as part of Sir William Jardine's "Naturalists Library: Ornithology" this piece represents a significant contribution to ornithological studies during that era. Lizars' meticulous attention to detail brings out the unique characteristics of this magnificent creature. The artist skillfully portrays not only the physical attributes but also captures the spirit and essence of these tropical birds. Displayed against a neutral background, every feather seems to come alive in vivid colors under Lizars' masterful brushstrokes. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable scientific document for those interested in avian species.
