EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Curlew, 1833-39" takes us back to the 19th century French School of art. The print, now part of a private collection, is a remarkable piece from the renowned publication "Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la natureA" by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The artwork showcases the exquisite beauty and intricate details of various bird species. In particular, it highlights the majestic Curlew, also known as Courlis or Cousin. With its long curved beak and graceful posture, this elegant creature stands out against a backdrop that includes other avian wonders like Trogon and Brachvogel. Not only does this engraving capture the essence of these magnificent birds but it also features Gerris lacustris, commonly referred to as pond skaters or water striders. These tiny insects add an element of life and movement to the composition. Created using a technique called stahlstich (steel engraving), this illustration represents both artistic mastery and scientific accuracy. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with nature's diversity during that era. Now preserved in ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also our planet's rich biodiversity. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece today, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect and cherish these precious creatures for generations
