EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored print showcases the striking features of the Black Grouse or Tetrao tetrix. Drawn and engraved by the renowned naturalist and artist, Edward Donovan, this image is taken from his comprehensive work, "The Natural History of British Birds," published in London between 1794 and 1819. The Black Grouse is a native bird species to Europe and Asia, particularly in Scotland and Scandinavia. Males, depicted in this print, are characterized by their glossy black plumage, white wing patches, and distinctive red eye combs. The females, on the other hand, have a more subdued appearance with brown feathers and a less vibrant eye comb. Donovan's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate engraving and delicate hand-coloring. The Black Grouse is depicted in its natural habitat, standing proudly on a mossy forest floor, surrounded by a variety of plants and foliage. The artist's ability to capture the bird's unique posture and the textured background adds depth and realism to the print. The Black Grouse was an important game bird in the British Isles, and this print would have been a prized possession for any natural history enthusiast or collector during the 18th and 19th centuries. Donovan's work was widely admired for its accuracy and artistic merit, making this print a valuable addition to any collection. Today, it serves as a reminder of the natural beauty and diversity of the British bird population during this period.
