EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning beauty of the Crested Guineafowl, scientifically known as Guttera pucherani (Numida cristata). The image, captured by renowned artist William Home Lizars (1788-1859), is a handcoloured copperplate engraving from his remarkable collection titled "The Natural History of Gallinaceous Birds". Lizars' attention to detail and artistic skill are evident in this exquisite illustration. Every feather of the Crested Guineafowl is meticulously depicted, highlighting its unique pattern and vibrant colors. The intricate lines and delicate shading bring this magnificent bird to life on paper. Sir William Jardine's esteemed publication, "The Naturalists Library: Ornithology" features Lizars' work prominently. This particular piece was included in the edition published in Edinburgh in 1834. It serves as a testament to both Jardine's dedication to documenting avian species and Lizars' talent for capturing their essence through art. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable print, allowing us to appreciate the beauty of nature through Lizars' eyes. The Crested Guineafowl stands as a symbol of grace and elegance within the avian world, reminding us of the incredible diversity found within our natural surroundings.
