EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegance and beauty of Grey crowned cranes, captured in the year 1928 by an unknown creator. The Grey crowned crane, scientifically known as Balearica regulorum, is a remarkable bird species found predominantly in eastern and southern Africa. Its distinctive feature lies in its crown adorned with stiff golden feathers, adding a touch of regality to its appearance. The image is sourced from "Die Welt in Bildern" (The World in Pictures), a cigarette card album dating back to the 1920s. This collection provides glimpses into various aspects of life across different continents during that era. The vibrant colors and intricate details on this particular card highlight the exotic nature of these African birds. Georg A Jasmatzi, associated with A. -G. Dresden based in Germany, played a role in preserving this visual treasure for generations to come. Although little information is available about Georg A Jasmatzi or their involvement with this specific piece, their contribution ensures that we can still appreciate and marvel at the grey crowned crane's plumage and crest today. This photograph serves as a reminder of the diverse avian species inhabiting our planet while also reflecting upon historical documentation methods such as cigarette cards albums which were once popular collectibles. It offers us an opportunity to connect with both nature's wonders and humanity's past through artistry and preservation efforts by individuals like Georg A Jasmatzi.
