EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases two depictions of the enigmatic and extinct Dodo (Raphus cucullatus), one from the Scotch House in Veere, Netherlands, dated 1561, and the other from the Florence Codex, Italy, circa 1703. The Dodo, a flightless bird native to the Indian Ocean islands, was discovered by European explorers in the late 15th century and quickly became a subject of fascination due to its unusual appearance and size. The Dodo from the Scotch House, Veere, is depicted in a detailed heliotype print from Dr. Anthonie Cornelis Oudemans' seminal work, "Dodo Studies," published in Amsterdam by Johannes Muller in 1917. This print, created by Van Leer, offers a lifelike representation of the Dodo's distinctive features, including its large, round body, small wings, and disproportionately large head. The Dodo from the Florence Codex, on the other hand, is shown in a more stylized and artistic manner, reflecting the changing perceptions and interpretations of the bird over time. This print, too, is part of the extensive collection of Dodo studies compiled by Dr. Oudemans, a renowned Dutch ornithologist who dedicated his career to the study of this fascinating and now-extinct species. Together, these two images offer a unique glimpse into the history of the Dodo, its discovery, and the evolving understanding of this remarkable bird. The Dodo, once a symbol of the wonders of the New World, now serves as a reminder of the fragility of nature and the importance of preserving and studying the natural world for future generations.
