From an edition of 1000. Colored lithographs. The lithographs
in this series were commissioned by the Department of Public Instruction in New
South Wales and were published in six volumes from 1887-1891. The lithographs
are drawn in a style more closely resembling watercolors than ornithological
illustrations. Broinowski (1837-1913) was born in Poland. Rather than join the
Russian Imperial Army, he wandered through Europe until 1857 when he left for
Australia. For some years he worked as a shepherd and farmer until going to
work for a publisher. Ultimately, however, he wanted to paint and wandered up
and down the coast painting the towns and villages he visited. He published
works on the birds and mammals of Australia and the cockatoos and nestors of
Australia and New Zealand. His best work, however, was The Birds of Australia.
