EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century illustration depicts the Pacific Black Duck, Anas superciliosa, a fascinating avian species native to the Pacific coast of North and South America. The Pacific Black Duck is a member of the Anatidae family, order Anseriformes, and is closely related to other ducks, geese, and swans. This illustration is believed to have been created during the era of great exploration and discovery, likely inspired by the voyages of renowned British explorer, Captain James Cook (1728-1779). Cook's expeditions, which spanned from 1754 to 1794, brought about significant advancements in the understanding of the Pacific world, including the discovery of new lands and the documentation of numerous new species. The Pacific Black Duck is depicted in this illustration with remarkable detail, showcasing its distinctive black plumage, white underparts, and orange eyes. The artist, Johann George Adam Forster (1754-1798), a naturalist and writer, accompanied Cook on his second voyage and made numerous observations and collections of natural history specimens during the expedition. Forster's illustrations, like this one, were produced to document the natural world and expand the knowledge of the scientific community. The Pacific Black Duck, with its unique features and intriguing appearance, would have been an exciting discovery for the naturalists and explorers of the time. This illustration not only serves as a testament to the rich history of exploration and discovery but also highlights the beauty and diversity of the natural world. The Pacific Black Duck, with its striking appearance and fascinating adaptations, continues to inspire wonder and intrigue in both scientific and artistic communities.
