EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from 1855 showcases the beauty and diversity of bird species found in the Pacific region. The image features three stunning avian creatures: the Pacific robin, white-winged fairywren, and rainbow pitta. The Pacific robin, also known as Petroica pusilla, is depicted with its vibrant orange breast and dark wings perched on a branch. Next to it stands the elegant white-winged fairywren, scientifically named Malurus leucopterus. This tiny bird flaunts its delicate blue plumage contrasting against its bright red bill. Completing this trio is the colorful rainbow pitta, or Pitta iris. With its striking combination of green, yellow, blue, and red feathers along with a long beak and strong legs for foraging on forest floors. This handcolored lithograph was created by Bauerrichter as part of Adam White's Popular History of Birds publication in 1855. It beautifully captures these birds' intricate details while showcasing their natural habitats. As an exquisite example of 19th-century scientific illustration from England's rich natural history tradition, this print serves as a testament to both artistic skill and zoological knowledge. Its inclusion in private collections speaks to its enduring appeal among art enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. With each glance at this lithograph print depicting these magnificent birds in all their glory, viewers are transported into a world where science meets artistry—a celebration of our planet's incredible biodiversity captured forever on paper.
