The Bird explores the fascinating world of eighteenth- and
nineteenth-century ornithological illustration. This was a period
of scientific, artistic and geographic discovery, when people began
to fully appreciate the immense variety of form and colour within
the natural world. This book celebrates this beauty through the
lavish illustrations produced at that time. Each chapter focuses on
a category of birds, from shorebirds to birds of prey. Feature
sections on key ornithological artists such as John James Audubon,
Elizabeth Gould and Edward Lear demonstrated how technology, travel
and ambition shaped these amazing images, and how their work
transformed our understanding of the wonderful world of birds.
