This exquisite handcolored steel engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of the Amethyst Woodstar, Calliphlox amethystina. The almost adult hummingbird is depicted with its iridescent amethyst-colored plumage, shimmering in the light. The intricate details of its delicate wings, long tail feathers, and vibrant colors are masterfully captured in this 19th-century illustration. Originally drawn by Jean-Gabriel Pretre and later hand-engraved by Coutant, this artwork is a testament to the natural history of the Colibri genus of hummingbirds. The illustration is taken from Rene Primevere's "Lessons Natural History of the Colibri Genus of Hummingbirds," published in Paris by Arthus Betrand in 1830. The Amethyst Woodstar is a small hummingbird species native to Central America and northern South America. They are known for their distinctive coloration, which is most vivid in the males. These hummingbirds are important pollinators, feeding on nectar from various flowers and playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. This image offers a glimpse into the natural world of the past, showcasing the intricacies of the Amethyst Woodstar and the artistry of the illustrator and engraver. It is a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
