EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases page 284 of "The Naturalists Companion" a remarkable illustrated manuscript by Kenelm Henry Digby. The image features an exquisite watercolor and manuscript text depicting the majestic Cassowary, a flightless bird native to Australia. Measuring 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm, this artwork is housed in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales. The Cassowary, with its fluffy plumage and striking appearance, is meticulously portrayed in this zoological illustration. The artist has captured every intricate detail of this magnificent creature, from its vibrant feathers to its distinctive long neck and powerful legs. Dating back to 1810-17, this piece offers a glimpse into Dublin's rich natural history exhibitions during that era. It serves as a testament to the meticulous observations made by early naturalists who sought to document and understand the diverse fauna found across continents. The handwritten label adds an authentic touch to this historical artifact, emphasizing its significance as both an ornithological study and a valuable record of antiquities and natural productions held within museums at that time. Through Bridgeman Images' fine art reproduction process, viewers can now appreciate the beauty of Digby's work in stunning detail. This print invites us on a visual journey through time while celebrating the wonders of avian diversity found in Australia's unique ecosystem.
