EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Friedrich Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children), published in Weimar in 1798, showcases an impressive array of quail and related gamebird species. The engraving features a total of seven distinct species, each meticulously rendered with intricate detail and vibrant hues. In the center, the Northern Bobwhite, Colinus virginianus, is depicted with its distinctive black and white plumage, while the Crested Bobwhite, Colinus cristatus, is shown with its distinctive crest feathers raised. The Blue-breasted Quail, Excalfactoria chinensis, boasts a striking blue chest and intricate markings. To the left, the Madagascar Buttonquail, Turnix nigricollis, is depicted with its cryptic brown and black plumage, perfect for blending into its forested habitat. The White-bellied Seedsnipe, Attagis malouinus, is shown on the right, with its white underbelly and speckled brown upperparts. The engraving also includes two additional quail species. The first, Coturnix coturnix, is the common quail, with its reddish-brown plumage and distinctive black and white barring. The second, Colinus cristatellus, is the Crested Buttonquail, with a smaller crest than the Crested Bobwhite. This beautiful illustration provides a glimpse into the natural history of these fascinating gamebirds, showcasing their unique features and intricate plumage. The handcolored copperplate engraving technique used in the creation of this image adds an additional layer of artistry and detail, making it a true masterpiece of ornithological illustration from the late 18th century.
