EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Ferruginous Thrush, 1831" showcases the remarkable talent of American artist Robert Havell. Created in the 19th century, this hand-colored engraving and aquatint on Whatman wove paper is a testament to Havell's mastery of ornithological illustration. The Ferruginous Thrush takes center stage in this artwork, its vibrant colors beautifully captured by Havell's skilled hand. With meticulous attention to detail, he brings out the intricate patterns and textures of the bird's feathers, making it come alive on paper. The thrush stands proudly against a backdrop that hints at its natural habitat - an enchanting blend of lush foliage and delicate flowers. Havell's expertise as an engraver shines through in every stroke, showcasing his ability to create depth and dimensionality within the image.
