EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed coloured engraving titled "Water Rail, 1833-39" captures the beauty of nature in exquisite detail. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection. The print was featured in "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" a publication by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The image showcases various creatures from the animal kingdom, including reptiles and birds. The central focus is on the Water Rail, also known as Rallus aquaticus, a stunning bird species that inhabits wetlands across Europe. Its distinctive green plumage stands out against its surroundings. In addition to the Water Rail, other animals depicted include the European Tree Frog (Hyla arborea) and Corn Crake (Crex crex). These creatures add depth and diversity to the composition. The artist's skillful use of colour brings these animals to life on paper. Each stroke contributes to their realistic portrayal while maintaining an artistic flair. This coloured engraving serves as both an educational tool for studying wildlife and a visually captivating piece of art. Published by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and now available through Bridgeman Images, this print offers viewers a glimpse into the wonders of nature captured during a time long past.
