'Cassowary of New South Wales'
Ornithological study of a flightless bird, most likely to be the Emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae) native to Australia. Plate 1 from Journal of a voyage to New South Wales...by John White (J.Debrett, London, 1790). The accompanying text states that: "A New Holland Cassowary was brought into camp. This bird stands seven feet high, measuring from the ground to the upper part of the head, and, in every respect, is much larger than the common Cassowary of all authors, and differs so much there from, in its form, as to clearly prove it a new species..." The plate is inscribed: "S.Stone Delin. Cassowary of New South Wales. London Published Dec: 29, 1789. By I.Debrett."
Original: copperplate engraving. 1790
