EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 239 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases the intricate details of the American Coot (Fulica americana). This hand-coloured aquatint print, created between 1834 and 1835, was engraved, printed, and coloured by R. Havell (& Son) in London. The American Coot, a member of the Rallidae family, is a distinctive waterbird with a long, flat, and slightly upturned bill. Its feet, which are perfectly adapted for swimming and diving, are prominently displayed in this illustration. Audubon's meticulous attention to anatomy is evident in the detailed depiction of the Coot's long legs and webbed feet. The bird's body is covered in iridescent green and black feathers, with a white belly and a distinctive black stripe running down its side. The American Coot is often found in wetlands throughout North and South America, and can be observed both in the water and on land. This stunning illustration captures the American Coot in its natural habitat during daytime hours. The vibrant colours and intricate details bring the bird to life, providing a glimpse into the natural world of the Sauropsida, a group of vertebrates that includes birds and reptiles. The beauty and precision of this plate serve as a testament to Audubon's unwavering dedication to documenting the natural world and to the art of illustration.
