EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print "Marias Woodpecker, 1838" by Robert Havell takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century America. This exquisite aquatint and hand-colored engraving on Whatman wove paper showcases the remarkable talent of both the artist and the subject. In this artwork, Havell masterfully captures the essence of Marias Woodpecker, a native bird species that inhabited North America during that era. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this feathered creature to life, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty up close. The meticulous etching technique employed by Havell highlights every delicate feature of the woodpecker's plumage with precision. Displayed in a prominent art gallery or center, this print serves as a testament to Audubon John James' significant contributions to ornithology. It is evident that Havell was deeply inspired by Audubon's work when creating this piece. Through his collaboration with Jean Jacques Fougère and Jean Rabin, he successfully immortalized Marias Woodpecker for generations to come. As we gaze upon this stunning illustration today at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, we are transported back in time to witness nature's wonders through an artist's eyes. The fusion of artistry and scientific observation showcased here reminds us of our rich natural heritage and encourages us to cherish and protect it for future generations.
