Pedionomus torquatus, 1840
Dates
- Creation: 1840
Physical Description
30 x 49cm watercolor
General
Plains-wanderer [Collared plain wanderer]. Finished watercolor. At lower right corner "Mrs Gould's." The two birds lack the distinctive neck and chest coloring and are therefore perhaps immature. The published plate follows the positions of the birds fairly closely but is completely redrawn and shows the adult coloring. Watermarked "J Whatman 1837." Previously cited as GS2 or 2GS (and so marked in pencil on reverse). Gift of Dr. Gordon C. Sauer. Artist's name(s): Gould, John; Gould, Elizabeth.
