EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Magpie Jay, 1833-39" showcases the exquisite beauty of a Magpie Jay in all its glory. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and was originally published in the renowned "Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" between 1833 and 1839. The artwork depicts a Blauer ElsterhAaher (Blue Magpie), also known as Calocitta formosa colliei or Pica Pica, with stunning attention to detail. The vibrant colors and intricate lines bring this majestic bird to life on paper. Its sleek black feathers contrast beautifully against its striking blue wings and tail feathers. The composition captures the essence of this intelligent creature, known for its mischievous behavior and remarkable vocal abilities. With piercing eyes fixed on something beyond our sight, it seems as though the Magpie Jay is about to take flight at any moment. This enchanting illustration not only celebrates the natural world but also serves as a testament to the artistic skill of its creator. Preserved through time by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville's publication, this piece continues to inspire awe and admiration for both birds enthusiasts and art lovers alike.
