Euirylaimus javanicus

Description

Drawing depicting: Eurylaimus javanicus -- Banded Broadbill. Alternate name on piece: Euirylaimus javanicus [Javan eurylaime], The combination of black ink and non-standard colors in this and Gould 2292 give them something of a poster-like appearance; their function in the process is not clear; they are two of a very few originals in the collection without a Gould studio/Sotheran provenance., Fully colored drawing, still requiring a little tightening up. At foot, pencil notes "Javanicus Eurylaimus / Asia / from Gould / Orig Gould Drawing." Reversed on the stone. Previously cited as GS30 or 30GS, and so marked on reverse.
