EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a charming assemblage of birds native to Sri Lanka, featuring the Black-capped Bulbul (Pycnonotus melanicterus) and two distinct warblers: the Yellow-breasted Flycatcher (Muscicapa melanictera) and the Green Warbler (Motacilla singalensis). The illustrations were meticulously rendered by Pieter de Bevere under the commission of Governor Joan Gideon Loten, and brought to life through the skilled hand of copperplate engraver Peter Brown. The Black-capped Bulbul, with its striking black cap and chestnut-brown plumage, is a common resident of Sri Lanka's forests and gardens. The Yellow-breasted Flycatcher, as its name suggests, boasts a bright yellow underbelly and is characterized by its long, curved bill. The Green Warbler, on the other hand, is easily recognizable by its vibrant green plumage and distinctive black mask. These illustrations, taken from Peter Brown's New Illustrations of Zoology published in London in 1776, offer a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of Sri Lanka during the colonial era. The intricate details and lifelike accuracy of the engraving serve as a testament to the artists' skill and dedication to documenting the natural world. As collectors and enthusiasts of natural history continue to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the natural world, these illustrations remain a valuable resource for understanding the rich biodiversity of Sri Lanka and the broader global context of ornithology during the 18th century.
