EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Turtle-Dove - Tur tur commu nis, c1910" takes us back to the early 20th century and immerses us in the beauty of British wildlife. Created by the talented artist George James Rankin, this exquisite watercolor portrait captures a moment in nature that is both serene and vibrant. The turtle-dove perches gracefully on a branch, its colorful plumage blending harmoniously with the surrounding woodland. With its keen eyes looking back at us, it exudes an air of curiosity and intelligence. The dove's presence symbolizes peace and tranquility, reminding us of the delicate balance within our natural world. Nestled amidst branches adorned with holly leaves, this bird's habitat reflects its affinity for woodlands. The common holly (Ilex aquifolium) serves as a protective shelter for these gentle creatures as they go about their daily activities. Taken from Arthur Landsborough Thomson's renowned publication "Britain's Birds and Their Nests" this print showcases not only Rankin's artistic prowess but also Thomson's dedication to ornithology. It is a testament to their shared passion for capturing nature's wonders through artistry and scientific study. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported to a time when appreciation for wildlife was paramount. Let us cherish such glimpses into our past as reminders of our responsibility to protect and preserve these magnificent creatures that grace our planet.
