EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor artwork depicts the New Zealand Pigeon, also known as the Kereru (Hemiphaga novaeseelandiae), a native bird species endemic to New Zealand. Painted by the renowned Dutch naturalist artist JG Keulemans for Sir Walter Lawry Buller's "A History of the Birds of New Zealand," this illustration was published in Volume 2, plate 25, in 1888. The Kereru is a unique and intriguing bird, belonging to the Columbidae family within the order Columbiformes, which includes doves and pigeons. With its distinctively large, round body and short, broad wings, the Kereru is well adapted to its forested habitat. Its plumage is predominantly iridescent green, with a purple sheen on the neck and a white collar. The Kereru is an important part of New Zealand's natural history, and its image has been captured in various works of art and literature throughout the years. In Maori culture, the Kereru holds significant spiritual and cultural importance, symbolizing peace, fertility, and the connection between the earth and the heavens. This watercolor painting by JG Keulemans is a testament to the beauty and uniqueness of New Zealand's avian fauna. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the Kereru to life, providing a glimpse into the natural history of this remarkable bird species. The artwork serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving New Zealand's unique biodiversity and the rich heritage of natural history illustration.
