EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print, titled "Mountain Mocking-bird and Varied Thrush, 1837" captures the essence of American wildlife in the 19th century. Created by the talented artist Robert Havell, this hand-colored engraving and aquatint on Whatman wove paper showcases his mastery of detail and color. In this artwork, Havell brings to life two fascinating bird species - the Mountain Mocking-bird and Varied Thrush. The vibrant colors of their feathers are beautifully depicted, making them appear almost lifelike. The intricate etching technique used by Havell adds depth and texture to each delicate feather. Set against a backdrop of evergreen plants with mistletoe hanging from above, these birds seem perfectly at home in their natural habitat. Their presence evokes a sense of tranquility and harmony within nature. Displayed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, this print is not only a testament to Havell's artistic skill but also serves as an important contribution to ornithology. It allows us to appreciate the rich diversity of bird species that inhabit our country's landscapes. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of the beauty that can be found in even the smallest creatures around us. Through his meticulous attention to detail, Robert Havell invites us into a world where art meets nature seamlessly.
