EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases a variety of foreign pigeons, each possessing its own unique charm and allure. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this print is a testament to the beauty and diversity found within the avian world. The composition features several species of pigeons, including the regal western crowned pigeon with its majestic plumage. Next to it stands the black-backed fruit dove, adorned with striking colors that make it truly stand out. The sea pigeon exudes elegance with its delicate features and graceful stance. Amongst these remarkable birds are also the wattled pigeon, known for its distinctive facial adornments, and the Mauritius blue pigeon, whose vibrant hues captivate all who lay eyes upon it. The collared pigeon proudly displays its intricate ringed collar while nearby rests an enchanting Oriku-Taube. This exquisite engraving was originally part of "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children), published between 1790-1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch. It serves as a reminder of nature's boundless creativity and reminds us to appreciate both familiar and unfamiliar creatures that share our planet. Now available in private collections worldwide, this print continues to inspire awe in viewers as they marvel at the diverse array of colours and patterns adorning these magnificent birds.
