General

Cinclosoma ajax -- Painted Quail-thrush [Orange-sided ground-thrush] Fine layout painting; note in Gould's hand: "ground ivy / Hart's drawing," as also the name of the bird in the legend position; note in another hand: "Marking and coloring of the lower bird is entirely different on the pattern which only I have seen." This note, like the many identifications added to the drawings (and probably the catalogue references and prices], may be by Sotheran's J.H. Stonehouse. Title in pencil by Sotheran, bookseller. Artist's name(s): Gould, John; Hart, William Matthew.
