EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the vibrant plumage of the Red-cheeked Cordon-blue, Uraeginthus bengalus. The Red-cheeked Cordon-blue is a small, brightly colored bird native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. The male bird is depicted in this illustration, with its iridescent blue body, black wings, and distinctive red patches on its cheeks. The female, which is less colorful, can be seen in the background. This exquisite engraving is taken from George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's The Naturalist's Miscellany, published in 1792. Shaw and Nodder were renowned naturalists and illustrators of their time, and their work was instrumental in documenting and cataloging the natural world. The intricate details of the Red-cheeked Cordon-blue's feathers and anatomy are beautifully rendered in this engraving, providing a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of this bird species.
