EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite artwork titled "Page 74. Unidentified birds (male and female). Hirundo caudacuta (w/c on paper)" by an unknown artist from the 18th century. Housed in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, this piece is part of Volume 04: Zoology of N. [New] Holland etc. , featuring a remarkable collection of 32 watercolours depicting fish and 112 watercolours showcasing various bird species. The image captures two unidentified birds perched gracefully on a branch against a backdrop of delicate brushstrokes. The male and female specimens are beautifully rendered with meticulous attention to detail, displaying their unique features and plumage patterns. With its brown hues contrasting against the white throated needletail's needle-tailed swift, this painting truly embodies the diversity found within Australia's avian fauna. Measuring at approximately 50.3 x 39.2 cm, this folio album print reflects the rich history of natural history illustration during that era. The use of J Whatman watermark further adds to its authenticity and artistic value.
