About the Item
Title: "ORNITHOLOGY. Div'n. Land Birds – Order 5 GALLINA. Plate IV"
Description:
This ornithological print from the early 19th century, Plate IV in its series, showcases birds from the order Galliformes, known for species like turkeys, guans, and curassows. It's a fine example of educational art from Rees' 'The Cyclopaedia, or Universal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, and Literature'. The detailed illustrations provide a visual study of each species' unique plumage patterns and body structures, reflecting the high standards of natural history documentation of the time.
The species are labeled as follows:
1. G. Meleagris (Turkey) - AMERICAN WILD TURKEY.
2. G. Penelope (Guan) - ORINOCO.
3. G. Crax (Curassow) - FEMALE, Male - CRESTED.
Publication Information:
The print, marked as published by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme & Brown of Paternoster Row, does not display a publishing date in the provided image, but it likely adheres to the same legal publication directives as similar prints from the collection. The artists responsible for the engravings after the original drawings have crafted a work that is both scientifically accurate and aesthetically pleasing, serving as an essential reference for 19th-century ornithological studies.
