EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 263 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," features the captivating image of a Curlew Sandpiper (Calidris ferruginea), a wading bird belonging to the Charadriiformes order and the Scolopacidae family. This stunning illustration, found in the original double elephant folio edition produced between 1834 and 1835, showcases the Curlew Sandpiper in its natural habitat during daytime hours. The Curlew Sandpiper, also known as the Eurasian Curlew or the Redshank, is easily identifiable by its distinctive long, downward-curved beak, which is longer than its body, and its striking red-brown stripes on its back and wings. The bird in this illustration appears to be in a pair, standing on a sandy shore with the sun casting long shadows, highlighting the intricate details of its plumage. The Curlew Sandpiper is a migratory bird, traveling between its Arctic breeding grounds and its wintering sites in Africa and Southern Europe. This image, meticulously engraved, printed, and hand-coloured by R. Havell (& Son) in London, captures the essence of this beautiful and elusive bird, allowing us to appreciate its natural beauty up close. The Curlew Sandpiper is a member of the Sauropsida class, a group of vertebrates that includes reptiles and birds, and is an essential part of the avian world. This illustration serves as a testament to Audubon's unwavering dedication to documenting the natural world and his exceptional artistic abilities. In this image, the Curlew Sandpiper stands poised, ready to wade into the water in search of food, adding to the intrigue and wonder of the natural world that Audubon so masterfully captured in his Birds of America.
