Description
ELLIOT’S TROCHALOPTERON — Vintage illustration, from John Gould’s BIRDS OF ASIA published in 1850. Only birdwatchers and ornithologists know if this bird still exists. This is ornithology before the camera.
Two birds with vibrant feathers, one perched on a mossy branch and the other in mid-flight, are depicted in a natural wetland habitat. Delicate detailing captures the intricate patterns of their wings and the surrounding foliage.
