EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured engraving captures the beauty of two fascinating bird species, the Egyptian plover (Pluvianus aegyptius) and the Eurasian woodcock (Scolopax rusticola). The intricate details in this illustration, created by Edouard Travies and engraved by Fournier for Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire Universale d'Histoire Naturelle in 1849, showcase the unique characteristics of these birds.
The Egyptian plover, also known as the crocodile bird, is famous for its symbiotic relationship with Nile crocodiles. These small wading birds are often seen picking food scraps from between a crocodile's teeth without fear of being harmed. Their striking black and white plumage adds to their allure.
In contrast, the Eurasian woodcock is a secretive woodland bird known for its cryptic plumage that helps it blend into its surroundings. With its long bill and mottled brown feathers, this elusive bird is a favorite among birdwatchers who appreciate its camouflaged appearance.
This enchanting print not only showcases the artistic talent of Travies and Fournier but also serves as a valuable educational tool about these avian wonders. Whether you're an avid birder or simply admire nature's beauty, this engraving is sure to captivate your imagination.
