EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 96 from John James Audubon's seminal work, "Birds of America," features the striking image of a Black-throated Magpie-Jay (Calocitta colliei), a captivating bird native to Mexico and Central America. This hand-colored aquatint engraving, produced by R. Havell (& Son) in London between 1827 and 1830, showcases the bird's vibrant plumage and distinctive features in exquisite detail. The magpie-jay is depicted perched on a branch, holding a nut in its beak. With its glossy blue wings, black throat, and iridescent green and purple sheen, this bird is a true feast for the eyes. The intricately detailed illustration captures the bird's expressive crest, which it raises and lowers to communicate with other magpie-jays. The Black-throated Magpie-Jay is a member of the Corvidae family, which also includes crows, ravens, and magpies. It is a passerine bird, belonging to the order Passeriformes. This bird is known to be quite intelligent and adaptable, and it is often seen in open woodlands and forest edges during the daytime hours. The hand-coloring of this print adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the already stunning image. The artist's skillful use of color brings out the intricacies of the bird's plumage and makes each feather seem lifelike. The overall effect is a breathtaking work of art that captures the essence of this remarkable bird.
