About the piece
Created around 1900 by the renowned Dutch bird illustrator John Gerrard Keulemans, this gouache and watercolor study depicts three Huia birds in fine detail. The composition captures the species' distinctive orange wattles and white-tipped tails, while highlighting the unique sexual dimorphism in beak shape that made the now-extinct New Zealand bird so fascinating to naturalists.
