EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 38 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 5 (1873) presents a stunning and intricately detailed hand-coloured lithograph of the Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus). This magnificent avian specimen is shown in its full regalia, with its distinctive brown body, long neck, and most notably, its fluffy crest and cheek plumes. The Great Crested Grebe is a member of the grebe family, known for its ability to swim and dive underwater with ease. This image captures the bird in its daytime habitat, likely on the water's surface, with its head turned slightly to the side, revealing a closer look at its anatomy. The ear and cheek area are particularly noteworthy, with the fine feathers creating a textured and almost fluffy appearance. John Gould, a renowned English publisher and printmaker, created this exquisite illustration during the 19th century, a time when natural history was a popular pursuit among the scientific community and the general public. The meticulous attention to detail in this lithograph is a testament to the skill and dedication of Gould and his team of talented artists and colourists. The Great Crested Grebe is a fascinating creature, with a unique anatomy that allows it to thrive in aquatic environments. Its long legs and webbed feet serve as powerful tools for swimming and diving, while its crest and plumes help to camouflage it from predators. This illustration offers a glimpse into the natural world of the past, showcasing the beauty and diversity of the avian kingdom.
