EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Greater Rhea, 1864" showcases a stunning colour lithograph of the majestic bird. Created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection and holds historical significance. The image was originally published in "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Vögel in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" in 1864, a renowned publication by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. The lithograph depicts the Greater Rhea, scientifically known as Rhea americana, also referred to as Der grosse Wandu or der große amerikanische Strauss Nandu. This illustration beautifully captures the essence of this magnificent creature with its intricate details and vibrant colors. The Greater Rhea stands tall and proud against a simple backdrop, showcasing its unique features that make it distinct among other birds. This remarkable piece not only serves as an artistic representation but also provides valuable insight into the world of ornithology during that era. It offers viewers a glimpse into the diverse range of avian species found across different continents. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exceptional artwork from ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's collection for enthusiasts to admire and appreciate.
