EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving is an enchanting illustration from Friedrich Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder, or Picture Book for Children, published in Weimar in 1798. The print showcases an enchanting assembly of European avian species: the European Roller (Coracias garrulus, number 1), Near Threatened; the Hoopoe (Upupa epops, number 2), the Red Crossbill (Loxia curvirostra, with red birds numbered 3 and yellow birds numbered 4), and the Thrush Nightingale (Luscinia luscinia, number 5). The European Roller, a near-threatened species, is depicted with its vibrant blue-green back and red underparts, perched gracefully on a branch. The Hoopoe, with its distinctive crest and fan-like feathers, stands proudly at the center. The Red Crossbills, characterized by their distinctive red and yellow plumage, are shown in pairs, while the Thrush Nightingale, known for its beautiful singing voice, is illustrated in its natural habitat. This illustration is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of the time, providing a glimpse into the natural world of Europe during the late 18th century. The meticulous hand-coloring adds depth and dimension to the engraving, making each bird stand out in its unique beauty. This print is not only an ornithological treasure but also a historical artifact, offering a window into the past and the fascination with the natural world that has endured through generations.
