EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-coloured lithograph of a Southern Cassowary's head, created by the renowned Dutch natural history illustrator JG Keulemans in circa 1898, provides a captivating glimpse into the exotic and intriguing world of this unique bird species. The illustration was based on the live animals at Walter Rothschild's Museum at Tring, which was a significant center for scientific research and exploration during the 19th century. At the time, illustrators played a crucial role in creating accurate records of species appearances, and Keulemans' meticulous attention to detail is evident in this exquisite portrait of the Southern Cassowary. The Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) is the largest of the three extant species of Cassowaries, native to the tropical rainforests of New Guinea and northern Australia. With their distinctive blue-black plumage, wattles, and helmet-like casque, Cassowaries are among the most striking and enigmatic creatures in the avian world. This illustration, published in the Transactions of the Zoological Society of London XV, offers a scientifically accurate and detailed record of the Southern Cassowary's anatomy, providing valuable insights into the bird's unique features and characteristics. The Natural History Museum at Tring, where Walter Rothschild's collection is housed, is an essential repository of natural history knowledge and a testament to the scientific curiosity and exploration of the 19th century. Keulemans' illustration is a testament to the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world, and it continues to captivate and inspire researchers, naturalists, and enthusiasts alike.
