'This celebrated work was issued in 19 parts, constituting chiefly of a series of beautiful hand-colored plates with explanatory text of birds of many regions by well-known artists, among them Lear, Gould, and the principal text contributors' (Wood). Illustrations of Ornithology was published to complement Selby's Illustrations of British Ornithology (1821-33) and in response to the paucity of works on non-European avifauna. Apart from John Latham's General History of Birds (1821-8), which Jardine and Selby deemed insufficient, there were in 1826 ‘fewer than a dozen titles published in Europe covering birds of Africa, Asia, North and South America, and one for Australia’ (Jackson & Davis, Sir William Jardine: A Life in Natural History , p. 37). To obtain specimens Jardine organised a collecting drive of unprecedented scale, applying to agents in the Cape of Good Hope, Jamaica, Barbados, Madeira, South Carolina, Trinidad, the Gambia and Sierra Leone, Buenos Aires and North America, and soliciting examples from relatives and associates travelling to Australia, India and Africa. The work is rarely encountered complete with the fourth volume of 53 plates, which was published between 1836 and 1843, and is described in the 'Note' to the rear of the third volume as a 'New Series'.

The curator told me that he was selling them at the above very low price [of 3/-], because ... they could not trace the work they belonged to ... The Librarian of the Zoological Soc of London ... told me he could find no work in the library there which contained similar plates ...
