EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 64 from John Gould's The Birds of Asia, Volume 1, showcases the striking beauty of the Long-tailed Broadbill (Psarisomus dalhousiae). This hand-coloured lithograph, created in the 19th century, captures the bird perched on a branch with its distinctive long, blue-black bill and intricately patterned mask. The Long-tailed Broadbill is a member of the Eurylaimidae family, also known as the Asian nicators or broadbills, which are characterized by their large, heavy bills. The Long-tailed Broadbill is a passerine bird, belonging to the order Passeriformes, and is native to the forests of Southeast Asia. The male and female of this species exhibit different plumage, with the male sporting a bright blue collar around its neck. The bird's long, graduated tail feathers are a striking feature, adding to its elegant appearance. The Long-tailed Broadbill is a flying bird, but this illustration captures it in a moment of stillness, providing a detailed view of its unique features. The intricate hand-colouring adds depth and texture to the illustration, bringing the bird to life and showcasing its natural beauty. John Gould's The Birds of Asia is a seminal work in the field of ornithology, featuring over 700 hand-coloured plates. This plate, in particular, is a testament to the skill and artistry of the lithographers and colourists of the time, as well as the dedication of John Gould and his team to documenting the natural world. The Long-tailed Broadbill remains an iconic representation of the diverse and fascinating avian species found in Asia.
