EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Blue-bellied Roller, Coracias cyanogaster, a vibrant and captivating bird species native to Western Africa. The intricate detail of the engraving, executed by William Lizars after the original work of naturalist William Swainson, showcases the Blue-bellied Roller's distinctive plumage. The bird's iridescent blue-green back and wings, contrasted by its bright red underparts and blue belly, are on full display. The Roller's long, curved beak and slender body are also clearly visible, adding to the overall sense of elegance and grace. The Blue-bellied Roller is a member of the roller family, Coraciidae, and is found in a variety of habitats across West and Central Africa. They are known for their acrobatic flying skills, often hovering in the air before diving down to catch insects and other prey. This engraving serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of the avian world, and offers a glimpse into the natural history of Western Africa during the 19th century. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the engraving make it a must-have for any avid bird enthusiast or collector of historical natural history illustrations.
