EDITORS COMMENTS
Phalacrocorax penicillatus, or Brandt's Cormorant, and Phalacrocorax pelagicus, or Pelagic Cormorant, gracefully perch on the edge of a rocky outcrop in this stunning hand-colored aquatint print from John James Audubon's "Birds of America." The intricate detail of the engraving showcases the unique anatomical features of these birds, with their long, slender necks, webbed feet, and distinctive blue-black plumage. The Brandt's Cormorant, depicted on the left, is named after the Danish naturalist and explorer, Hans Christian Andersen Brandt. It is a pelagic bird, found primarily in the Arctic regions of the North Pacific Ocean. The bird's bright red eyes and distinctive white markings on its face make it easily identifiable. The Pelagic Cormorant, shown on the right, is also known as the Great Cormorant or the Southern Cormorant. It is a widespread bird, found in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Pelagic Cormorant's plumage is a glossy, iridescent blue-black, and its neck is longer and more slender than that of the Brandt's Cormorant. This beautiful print, plate 412 from Audubon's "Birds of America," was created between 1835 and 1838 by the skilled hands of John James Audubon, Robert Havell, and his son, Edward. The aquatint process, which involved etching the plate with a fine needle and then applying a powdery ink, allowed for the rich colors and intricate details seen in the final product. The print captures these birds in their natural habitat, basking in the daytime sun outside of the water. The contrast between the vibrant colors of the birds and the muted tones of the rocky outcrops creates a stunning visual effect. Overall, this print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the avian world.
