This hand-colored lithograph, titled "Lophornis chalybeus (Festive Coquette)", transports us back to the 19th century when nature and art intertwined seamlessly. Created by the talented duo of John Gould and Henry Constantine Richter, this print showcases their expertise in ornithology and botanical illustration. The Festive Coquette, also known as Lophornis chalybeus, is a mesmerizing hummingbird species native to tropical regions. Its vibrant plumage shimmers with an array of colors that seem almost unreal. The delicate bird hovers gracefully amidst a backdrop of exotic flowers, creating a scene straight out of paradise. Gould and Richter's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of color on this hand-tinted lithograph. The intricate patterns on the feathers are brought to life through their artistic skill, capturing the essence and beauty of this enchanting creature.
