EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of natural history, titled "Page 310. Green Macaw, copied from a living bird, exhibited in Dublin, 1810-17". The artwork was created by Kenelm Henry Digby (1800-80) and measures an impressive 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm. Displayed at the Mitchell Library in the State Library of New South Wales, this painting captures the essence of the vibrant green macaw with astonishing precision. The meticulous watercolor technique combined with manuscript text adds depth and authenticity to this masterpiece. "The Naturalists Companion" is an illustrated manuscript that accompanies this artwork and provides suitable descriptions for a wide range of animals including quadrupeds, birds, fishes, serpents, and insects. Digby's drawings were meticulously crafted either from living animals or stuffed specimens found in various museums across Dublin. The image portrays the green macaw perched gracefully on a branch against a backdrop reminiscent of its tropical habitat. Its vivid plumage stands out beautifully against the lush foliage surrounding it. With its exotic allure and distinctive features such as its psittacidae family classification and characteristic perch position, this artwork offers viewers a glimpse into Australia's rich avian fauna during the early 19th century. As part of Bridgeman Images' collection from Fine Art Finder, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind Digby's work and his dedication to capturing nature's wonders through detailed illustrations.
