EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed lithograph captures the beauty of an Alexandrine Parakeet, dating back to 1864. The artwork showcases the exquisite plumage and distinctive features of this magnificent bird species. Created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The image comes from "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Vögel in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" a publication by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. This comprehensive atlas was published in 1864 and aimed to provide scientific knowledge about birds while also appealing to a wider audience. Also known as the King Lory or Scarlet-winged Parakeet, this particular parrot species is scientifically classified as Palaeornis alexandri or Aprosmictus scapulatus. Its striking colors and large size make it a captivating subject for illustrators and nature enthusiasts alike. The lithograph itself is rich in color, showcasing the vibrant green feathers on its body, contrasting with its red beak and wings. Every detail has been meticulously captured, allowing viewers to appreciate both the artistic skill involved and the natural beauty of this avian creature. This print serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife throughout history, providing us with a glimpse into how these creatures were studied and appreciated during earlier times.
