EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Shrikes, 1833-39" showcases the exquisite artistry of the French School in the 19th century. Part of a private collection, this print is a remarkable representation of nature's wonders as depicted in A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la natureA, published by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville between 1833 and 1839. The artwork features three species of shrikes: Pie-Griache commune, Pie-Griache septentrionale, and Pie-Griache fiscale. These birds belong to the Lanius sp. family and are beautifully illustrated with meticulous detail. The artist's skillful use of colour brings these avian creatures to life on paper. Raubwürger (shrike), Würger (choker), Stahlstich (steel engraving) - all terms that describe this stunning piece from the 19th century. It is an illustration that captures not only the essence but also the intricate characteristics of these magnificent creatures. Preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen today, this engraving remains an invaluable testament to both artistic talent and scientific exploration during its time. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty while celebrating the rich history behind it.
