EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-coloured lithograph of a Northern Cassowary's head, created by the renowned Dutch natural history illustrator JG Keulemans in circa 1898, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of one of the most exotic and intriguing birds of the nineteenth century. The illustration was based on live animals housed at Walter Rothschild's Museum at Tring, which was instrumental in documenting and preserving the natural world during the Victorian era. At the time, illustrators like Keulemans played a crucial role in creating scientifically accurate records of species appearances, contributing significantly to the fields of ornithology and natural history. This monograph of the Cassowary genus, Casuarius, is a testament to Keulemans' masterful skill in capturing the intricate details of this unique bird's anatomy. The Cassowary, Casuarius bicarnunculatus, is a large, flightless bird native to the tropical rainforests of New Guinea and northern Australia. With its distinctive blue-black plumage, wattles, and helmet-like casque, the Northern Cassowary is an iconic symbol of the exotic and the unknown. Keulemans' portrait of the bird's head provides a detailed and colourful representation of this fascinating creature, offering a glimpse into the natural history of a species that continues to captivate scientists, conservationists, and animal lovers alike. This historic illustration, published in the Transactions of the Zoological Society of London XV, is a valuable addition to any collection of natural history, ornithology, or art. It serves as a reminder of the importance of scientific documentation and the role that illustrations played in advancing our understanding of the natural world during the Victorian era.
