EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a female Great bustard, Otis tarda, an endangered species. The handcoloured copperplate engraving was skillfully created by William and Emily Hayes for their collection titled "Portraits of Rare and Curious Birds from the Menagery of Osterly Park". The intricate details captured in this illustration highlight the beauty and vulnerability of this magnificent bird. With its elegant feathers and graceful pose, the Great bustard stands as a symbol of nature's wonders. William Hayes, known for his expertise in ornithology, meticulously depicted every feature of this remarkable creature. His collaboration with Emily Hayes resulted in a stunning portrayal that captures the essence of the female Great bustard. The artwork originates from 18th-century England when scientific exploration and curiosity about the natural world were at their peak. This engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insights into avian diversity during that era. Florilegius has preserved this extraordinary piece through careful reproduction, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. As we admire this print, let us reflect on our responsibility to protect vulnerable species like the Great bustard and ensure their survival for future generations. Bridgeman Images presents this exceptional artwork from Fine Art Finder without any commercial intentions or usage implications.
