EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "Page 11. Lanius". The piece, created by an unknown artist in the 18th century, depicts a natural-sized Crested Shrike perched on a branch. The painting is part of Collection 27: Drawings of birds chiefly from Australia, dating back to 1791-92. The attention to detail in this zoological illustration is remarkable. The artist skillfully captures the intricate features of the bird, including its vibrant yellow breast and distinctive crest. This work serves as both a testament to the beauty of avian fauna and an important contribution to ornithology. Housed at the Mitchell Library within the State Library of New South Wales, this artwork offers valuable insights into Australia's rich natural history. Each sketch within Collection 27 is accompanied by handwritten notes indicating when and where each bird was sighted. As we admire this exquisite painting, we are transported back in time to witness nature through the eyes of early explorers and scientists. It reminds us of our connection with wildlife and encourages us to appreciate and protect Earth's diverse species. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this masterpiece for all art enthusiasts to enjoy. Through their lens, we can delve into the world of ornithology while marveling at the talent displayed by artists who sought to document our planet's incredible biodiversity.
