EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor painting depicts the common pheasant, Phasianus colchicus, created by the skilled hand of Frederick William Frohawk in 1930. The common pheasant is a large and striking bird belonging to the galliformes family, known for its iridescent green and blue plumage, long tail, and distinctive red wattles and ear tufts. In this illustration, the bird is depicted in its daytime habitat, with its alert and curious expression showcasing its distinctive blue face and piercing, orange-red eyes. The intricate details of the common pheasant's anatomy are on full display, from its long, powerful legs to its feathered horns and the subtle textures of its iridescent feathers. Frederick William Frohawk was a renowned ornithological illustrator, whose works were featured in numerous publications during the early 20th century. His attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of his subjects made him a favorite among bird enthusiasts and collectors. This painting is a testament to his skill and dedication to the art of ornithology. The common pheasant is native to Europe and Asia, and is a popular game bird in many parts of the world. Despite its widespread distribution and popularity, it remains a beautiful and intriguing creature, with its vibrant plumage and distinctive features making it a favorite among birdwatchers and naturalists. This painting by Frohawk serves as a reminder of the natural beauty that can be found in the world around us, and the importance of preserving and celebrating the diversity of the avian world.
