EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the stunning beauty of a female Eclectus parrot (Eclectus roratus), also known as the Blue-breasted parrot. The intricate detail in this artwork, created by renowned English engraver Peter Brown for his New Illustrations of Zoology published by B. White in London in 1776, captures every feather and hue of this remarkable bird. The Eclectus parrot is native to New Guinea and nearby islands in the Pacific. Females are easily distinguished by their bright red and blue plumage, while males have a mostly green body with red and yellow feathers on their wings and tail. This sexually dimorphic feature is evident in the depiction of this female Eclectus parrot, with her vibrant blue underparts and red upperparts. The Eclectus parrot is known for its distinctive call, which sounds like a loud, ringing bell. They are omnivorous, feeding on a variety of fruits, flowers, buds, leaves, and seeds, as well as insects and small invertebrates. These birds are also popular in aviculture due to their striking appearance and relatively calm demeanor. This engraving, produced during the height of the Age of Enlightenment, reflects the fascination with natural history and the desire to document and preserve the wonders of the natural world. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail in this artwork serve as a testament to the skill and dedication of Peter Brown and the scientific community of the time.
