This exquisite watercolour illustration from a book of rare birds by G Edwards, dating back to 1750, is a true testament to the talent and dedication of British naturalist and ornithologist George Edwards. Known for his extensive travels throughout Europe in pursuit of studying natural history, particularly birds, Edwards gained recognition for his beautifully detailed coloured drawings.
In 1743, he published the first volume of "A Natural History of Uncommon Birds," setting the stage for a series that would showcase his passion for capturing the beauty and diversity of avian species. This particular print captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to marvel at the intricate details and vibrant colors that bring these rare birds to life on paper.
