Created in the 19th century, this piece exemplifies Lear's exceptional talent in ornithological illustration, a field in which he made significant contributions before gaining fame for his whimsical poetry.
Edward Lear's fascination with birds began in his youth, and he quickly became adept at capturing their intricate details and vibrant colors. "Stanley Parrakeet Platycercus icterotis" is a testament to his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to render avian subjects with both scientific accuracy and artistic flair. The work features the Stanley Parakeet, also known as the Western Rosella, a species native to southwestern Australia. Lear's illustration highlights the bird's distinctive red and yellow plumage, set against a naturalistic background that enhances the overall composition.
Lear's ornithological illustrations were highly regarded by his contemporaries and contributed to the burgeoning field of natural history during the Victorian era. His work was often commissioned by prominent figures and institutions, including the Zoological Society of London.

"Stanley Parrakeet Platycercus icterotis" stands as a prime example of Lear's contribution to both art and science, reflecting his unique ability to blend aesthetic beauty with precise observation.
