EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 361 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases the captivating beauty of the Dendragapus obscurus, or the Blue Grouse. This exquisite hand-colored aquatint print, engraved, printed, and colored by R. Havell (& Son) in London between 1835 and 1838, offers a detailed and lifelike representation of this intriguing bird. The Blue Grouse is depicted in its natural habitat, standing proudly on a rocky outcropping amidst a backdrop of towering mountains and a crystal-clear, meandering stream. The rich, vibrant blues and intricate patterns on the grouse's feathers are brought to life through the masterful use of hand-coloring, creating a stunning contrast against the earthy tones of the mountainous terrain. This illustration provides a glimpse into the avian world of the Sauropsida, specifically the Phasianidae family, which includes grouses, quails, and pheasants. The Blue Grouse, also known as the Dusky Grouse, is a native North American species, typically found in coniferous forests and rocky, hilly areas. The Blue Grouse is shown in a pair, suggesting the bird's social nature and mating behaviors. This image captures the essence of a daytime scene in the land of the Sauropsida, offering a glimpse into the diverse and fascinating world of birds. The intricate geomorphology of the mountainous landscape and the serene, clear stream serve as a beautiful backdrop to the Blue Grouse, highlighting the harmony between these magnificent creatures and their natural environment.
