EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Page 54. The Kingfisher, 1810-17" by Kenelm Henry Digby. The artwork measures 39.6x25.2x5.4 cm and is housed in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales. The image features a stunning blue-plumed kingfisher perched on a branch, its long beak elegantly poised as if frozen in time. This ornithological masterpiece combines meticulous handwritten manuscript text with a zoological illustration that captures the essence of this beautiful bird. Digby's work is part of "The Naturalists Companion" an illustrated manuscript containing drawings and descriptions of various animals, insects, antiquities, and natural productions found in museums across Dublin Society and College. His attention to detail shines through each stroke of his brush. The label accompanying the painting adds to its allure, providing viewers with valuable insights into the world of avian fauna. It invites us to explore Australia's rich biodiversity by showcasing an Australian kingfisher species belonging to the Alcedinidae family. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection at Fine Art Finder, we are transported into a realm where art meets science seamlessly. Through Digby's skillful handiwork and dedication to accuracy, he has immortalized this enchanting creature for generations to come.
