EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored print depicts the Black-headed Bulbul, Pycnonotus atriceps, also known as the Black-headed Shrike or Lanius melanocephalus. The image is a meticulously crafted copperplate engraving, drawn and engraved by the renowned English ornithologist, John Latham, for his seminal work "A General History of Birds," published in Winchester in 1822. The Black-headed Bulbul is a small, strikingly beautiful bird, native to the tropical regions of Asia. Its distinctive black head, white underparts, and olive-green back make it a striking subject for Latham's artful rendering. The bulbul is a member of the Old World flycatcher family, characterized by their long, curved beaks, which are well-suited for catching insects and other small prey. Despite the meticulous detail and accuracy of Latham's work, there is some confusion regarding the true origins of the Black-headed Bulbul. In the caption accompanying this print, Latham identifies the bird as native to Hawaii, while other sources, such as those by Shaw, place its origins in Australia. The true origins of this bird remain a subject of ongoing debate among ornithologists, adding an intriguing layer of mystery to this beautiful work of art and science.
