EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Passeres, Scansores, Shrikes and Parrots" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of birds through the eyes of European School artists. The vibrant colours and intricate details bring these avian creatures to life, showcasing their beauty and diversity. The image is part of an illustration for "Natural History of the Animal Kingdom for the Use of Young People" specifically focusing on birds. This educational piece was created by W. F. Kirby in 1889 and aimed to introduce young minds to the wonders of nature. Amongst this stunning collection are various types of Passeres (perching birds), Scansores (climbing birds), Shrikes (predatory songbirds), and Parrots. Each bird species depicted holds its own unique charm – from the majestic Great Grey Shrike with its piercing gaze to the vividly colored Great Scarlet Macaw that captivates with its plumage. This historical artwork not only serves as a visual treat but also highlights our fascination with ornithology throughout history. It reminds us that nature has always been a source of inspiration for artists across different eras. As we admire this print, we can't help but appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating it and our planet's incredible wildlife heritage captured within it.
