EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving from "The National Encyclopaedia: A Dictionary of Universal Knowledge", published around 1890, captures the majestic beauty of the rough-legged buzzard (Buteo lagopus), also known as the rough-legged hawk and rough-legged falcon. The intricate details in this print showcase the grace and power of this bird of prey.
In the 19th century, engravings like this one were highly sought after for their accuracy and artistry. The skillful hand of the engraver is evident in every feather and curve of the buzzard's form, bringing it to life on paper.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the wind beneath its wings as it soars through the sky with a keen eye for its next meal. The rough-legged buzzard is a symbol of strength and resilience in nature, embodying both grace and ferocity in equal measure.
This piece by © Ken Welsh is a true masterpiece that pays homage to not only the bird itself but also to the artistry of engraving during that time period. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and our fascination with these magnificent creatures that share our world.
