1.Distribution: Bismarck Archipelago. First described by Bonaparte 1854. 2.Distribution: Rare visitor. First described by Linne 1758.

This image is from the last great bird series, The Birds of Australia by G. Matthew’s and is rarer than John Gould’s work on Australian birds, with only 225 sets done. It was the last series produced to use hand colouring rather than colour printed lithography for the illustrations. Original lithograph. Rare.
