EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases two strikingly beautiful and intellectually renowned parrot species: the African Grey Parrot (Psittacus erithacus) and the Green Parakeet (Psittacara holochlora). The African Grey Parrot, native to the forests of Central and West Africa, is renowned for its remarkable intelligence and ability to mimic human speech. With its distinctive grey feathers, this parrot is a popular choice among bird enthusiasts and researchers. The Green Parakeet, native to South America, is easily identified by its vibrant green plumage and red tail feathers. This social and agile bird is often found in large flocks and is known for its ability to fly at high speeds and perform acrobatic maneuvers in the air. This exquisite print is taken from Th. Lejeune's Complete Works of Buffon, a comprehensive ornithological publication produced in Brussels in 1837. The detailed illustration accurately captures the unique features of both parrot species, making it an invaluable resource for avian studies and a stunning addition to any collection. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the intricate lithograph, highlighting the intricacies of each bird's feathers and anatomy. The African Grey Parrot and Green Parakeet are not only visually striking but also hold significant cultural and scientific importance. Their inclusion in Buffon's Complete Works serves as a testament to their historical significance and the importance of ornithology in the scientific community. This print is a must-have for bird enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone with an appreciation for the natural world and the beauty it holds.
