This print showcases the stunning beauty of the Copper Pheasant, also known as Soemmerring's Pheasant. The artwork, created by William Home Lizars in 1834, is a handcoloured copperplate engraving that captures the intricate details and vibrant colors of this magnificent bird. The Copper Pheasant, scientifically named Syrmaticus soemmerringii (Phasianus soemmerringii), is depicted in all its glory with its iridescent copper plumage and long tail feathers gracefully fanned out. This species is native to East Asia and is highly regarded for its striking appearance. Lizars' illustration was part of Sir William Jardine's renowned work "The Natural History of Gallinaceous Birds" within his esteemed publication called "The Naturalists Library: Ornithology".
