EDITORS COMMENTS
of John and Elizabeth Gould's "A Monograph of the Trogonid, or Family of Trogons" (1838), features a stunning hand-coloured lithograph of the Hispaniolan Trogon, Priotelus roseigaster. The image captures a single bird perched gracefully on a long, grey branch, its belly turned towards the viewer, displaying the vibrant, rose-tinted feathers that give this species its name. John and Elizabeth Gould were renowned nineteenth century naturalists and illustrators, known for their meticulous attention to detail and exceptional artistic skill. This particular illustration showcases their ability to bring the natural world to life, with the Hispaniolan Trogon depicted in lifelike detail, its long, curved beak and brilliant plumage on full display. The Hispaniolan Trogon is a native of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, and is characterized by its distinctive belly coloration. This trogon is a solitary bird, typically found in forested areas and is most active during the daytime hours. The image captures the bird in its natural habitat, outside among the foliage, adding to the sense of realism and authenticity. The lithograph is a beautiful example of the artistry and scientific precision of the nineteenth century, and serves as a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of the avian world. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the Hispaniolan Trogon to life, making it a captivating addition to any collection of natural history illustrations.
