EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty and diversity of three unique bird species: the Pied Flycatcher, Blue and White Flycatcher, and New Zealand Fantail. The engraving, created by Edouard Travies in 1839, captures these birds in exquisite detail. In the foreground, we see the European Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca), with its striking black-and-white plumage. Perched on a branch nearby is the Blue and White Flycatcher (Cyanoptila cyanomelana), displaying its vibrant blue feathers contrasting against a white belly. Lastly, we are introduced to the New Zealand Fantail (Rhipidura fuliginosa), known for its distinctive fan-shaped tail that elegantly fans out behind it. The handcoloured steel engraving by Fournier brings these avian wonders to life with meticulous precision. Each feather is delicately rendered, showcasing both Travies' artistic skill and his dedication to capturing nature's intricate details. This enchanting artwork originates from Achille Richards Oeuvres Completes de Buffon published in Paris in 1839. It serves as a testament to scientific exploration during this era when natural history was at the forefront of intellectual curiosity. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the rich biodiversity found across different continents and how art can transport us into worlds unknown. This print not only celebrates these magnificent creatures but also highlights their significance within our natural world—a true treasure for any admirer of wildlife or lover of fine art.
