EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving captures the delicate beauty of the Tawny-crowned pygmy tyrant, also known as the Rufus-crowned tody. The intricate details of this bird's plumage are brought to life through the skilled artistry of William Lizars, who expertly translated William Swainson's original illustration into a work of art that is both scientifically accurate and visually captivating.
The Tawny-crowned pygmy tyrant is a small but striking bird, with its distinctive rufous crown standing out against its otherwise muted coloration. Its tiny size belies its fierce nature as an adept flycatcher, darting through the air with precision to capture insects on the wing.
This print is part of Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Ornithology series, a comprehensive collection of illustrations showcasing the diversity and beauty of birds from around the world. Each image in this series serves as a valuable resource for ornithologists and nature enthusiasts alike, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of avian biodiversity.
