EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a Victorian-era drawing of a Golden Pheasant (Chrysolophus pictus), created by the renowned English artist Alfred Waterhouse for the ornamentation of the Natural History Museum in London. The museum, designed by Waterhouse in the 1860s, opened its doors on Easter Monday, 1881. This intricately detailed illustration, titled "Drawing 30 Vol 2," showcases the grandeur and beauty of the Golden Pheasant, a bird native to the forests of China. The Golden Pheasant is a member of the Phasianidae family, order Galliformes, and class Aves, which includes birds. Sauropsida is the larger taxonomic group that includes both birds and reptiles. The Golden Pheasant is known for its striking golden feathers, iridescent green and blue head, and vibrant red wattles. These magnificent birds are also adorned with a long, flowing train of golden and black feathers. Waterhouse's illustration captures the essence of the Golden Pheasant's regal presence, with its proud stance and elegant plumage. The artist's masterful use of line, shading, and color brings the bird to life, transporting us back to the Victorian era and the grandeur of the Natural History Museum. This drawing is a testament to Waterhouse's exceptional talent as an artist and his dedication to capturing the natural world in all its splendor. It remains an enduring symbol of the beauty and wonder of the natural world, as well as a reminder of the rich history of the Natural History Museum in London.
