EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "Eastern meadowlark, starling and pied myna" showcases the beauty of three distinct bird species. Created by Edouard Travies in 1839, this handcoloured steel engraving is a true masterpiece that captures the essence of these avian creatures. In this print, we are introduced to the Eastern meadowlark (Sturnella magna), common starling (Sturnus vulgaris), and pied myna or Asian pied starling (Gracupica contra). Each bird is meticulously illustrated with intricate details, showcasing their unique features and characteristics. The artist's attention to detail is further enhanced by Madame Thorel's handcolouring technique. The vibrant hues breathe life into each bird, making them come alive on paper. This collaboration between Travies and Thorel truly highlights their mastery in capturing nature's wonders. This enchanting artwork was featured in Achille Richards' Oeuvres Completes de Buffon, a renowned publication dedicated to natural history. It serves as a testament to the scientific exploration of zoology during the early 19th century. As we admire this exquisite engraving from a private collection, we are transported back in time to an era where art merged seamlessly with science. Through its delicate strokes and vivid colors, this print not only celebrates the beauty of these birds but also pays homage to French culture and scientific advancements of that period. "Eastern meadowlark, starling and pied myna" stands as a timeless reminder of our fascination with wildlife and our continuous quest for knowledge about the natural world.
