EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving, created by du Casse after an illustration by Varin, showcases two fascinating and beautifully colored birds: the Guinea Turaco (Tauraco persa) and the Eurasian Wryneck (Jynx torquilla). The Guinea Turaco, also known as the Persian Turaco, is a native of Central and East Africa. With its iridescent green and blue plumage, distinctive red eyes, and long, curved tail, it is a striking addition to any ornithological collection. The Eurasian Wryneck, on the other hand, is a resident of Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. Known for its cryptic, earth-toned feathers and distinctive neck movements, this enigmatic bird is a master of disguise, blending seamlessly into its woodland habitat. The intricate details of these birds are masterfully captured in this print, which is taken from the "Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle" (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History) by Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville, published in Paris between 1834 and 1839. The meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors of this engraving serve to highlight the natural beauty of these birds and transport us to another time and place, making it a true treasure for any nature lover or collector.
