EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured engraving captures the beauty and grace of four different species of birds - the Common tern, Black tern, Great frigatebird, and White-tailed tropicbird. Each bird is meticulously detailed in this 19th-century illustration, showcasing the intricate patterns of their feathers and unique characteristics.
The artist, Edouard Travies, expertly captured the essence of these magnificent creatures in his drawing for Richard's "New Edition of the Complete Works of Buffon." The engraving on steel by Fournier brings Travies' artwork to life with vibrant colors that make each bird stand out against a white background.
From the elegant flight posture of the Common tern to the striking black plumage of the Black tern, every detail is carefully rendered in this historical print. The graceful wingspan of the Great frigatebird and the long tail feathers of the White-tailed tropicbird add to the overall composition, creating a harmonious balance between these avian beauties.
This exquisite piece serves as a reminder of nature's wonders and showcases the talent and skill of both artist and engraver. It is a timeless representation of ornithology at its finest, capturing these birds in all their glory for generations to come.
