General

Very finished painting; some changes to birds indicated in white crayon, subtle enough that they can scarcely be seen in the proof, Gould 1146; entirely different from Birds of Australia IV:1; at foot of page: "see if drawn on stone"; at head of page: two other binomials, undeciphered. Gould 2018 is a tracing of this on tissue.
