EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely handcolored steel engraving depicts a juvenile Green-breasted Mango, Anthracothorax prevostii, also known as Trochilus prevostii. The young bird is shown perched on a branch, displaying its distinctive plumage. The Green-breasted Mango is a small, vibrant hummingbird species native to Central America and northern South America. The illustration is taken from Rene Primevere's "Lessons Natural History of the Colibri Genus of Hummingbirds," published in Paris by Arthus Bertrand in 1830. The work was illustrated by the skilled hand of Jean-Gabriel Pretre and further enhanced by the meticulous engraving of Coutant. The result is a stunning representation of the juvenile Green-breasted Mango, with its iridescent green back, chestnut-colored underparts, and long, curved beak. The Green-breasted Mango is known for its agility and vibrant colors, which make it a favorite among ornithologists and bird enthusiasts. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and intricacy of the natural world, capturing the essence of this hummingbird species in remarkable detail.
