Painting Description
"Trogon Temnurus" is a lithograph by the English ornithologist and bird artist John Gould. Known for his detailed and vibrant illustrations of birds, Gould's work was instrumental in the study and appreciation of ornithology during the 19th century. The lithograph of Trogon Temnurus, which is part of Gould's extensive body of work, depicts the species also known as the White-tailed Trogon, a bird native to the Neotropical region.
John Gould's illustrations were often published in large volumes and monographs that he produced with the help of his wife, Elizabeth Gould, who was an accomplished artist in her own right, and several other artists and ornithologists. These works were highly regarded for their scientific accuracy and artistic quality, contributing significantly to the field of ornithology.
The "Trogon Temnurus" lithograph would have been included in one of Gould's comprehensive bird books, which were typically released in parts over several years. These books included "The Birds of Europe," "The Birds of Asia," and "The Birds of Australia," among others. Each illustration was based on meticulous observations and often on specimens collected during expeditions. Gould's work was characterized by its attention to detail, the vividness of the colors, and the dynamic representation of the birds in their natural habitats.
As with many of Gould's illustrations, "Trogon Temnurus" would have been created using hand-colored lithography, a printing process that was popular in the 19th century for reproducing artwork. The lithograph would have been drawn onto a stone or a metal plate with a grease-based medium, then inked and pressed onto paper, and finally hand-colored to achieve the desired vibrancy and realism.
John Gould's contribution to ornithology and bird art remains significant, and his illustrations, including that of Trogon Temnurus, continue to be appreciated by bird enthusiasts, art collectors, and scientists for their beauty and scientific value.
