John Gould's Magnificent Display of the Iridescent Violet-crowned Hummingbird, Agyrtria viridiceps: A Glimpse into Victorian Zoological Marvels In the heart of the Victorian era, during the nineteenth century, John Gould, as Curator and Preserver to the esteemed Zoological Society of London, showcased an extraordinary exhibition of stuffed hummingbirds. This remarkable collection, displayed in twenty-four custom-made cases, measured an impressive height of 58cm. Among the most captivating specimens was the Agyrtria viridiceps, also known as the Violet-crowned Hummingbird or the Green-crowned Hummingbird (Amazilia viridiceps). This exquisite bird, belonging to the Trochilidae family and the Apodiformes order, is a mesmerizing example of the Sauropsida class, reptile-descended vertebrates. The Agyrtria viridiceps boasts an iridescent, vibrant green crown, contrasting with its dark, velvety plumage. Its wings, a stunning display of avian artistry, shimmer with a kaleidoscope of colors, from emerald green to deep violet. The male's long, slender bill, adorned with a distinctive black tip, adds to its allure. John Gould's meticulously curated collection, displayed in 1851, was not only a testament to the natural world's beauty but also a reflection of the scientific advancements of the time. The exhibition offered visitors a glimpse into the wonders of the natural world, inspiring awe and wonder, and fueling the insatiable curiosity that characterized the Victorian age. This photograph, taken from the extensive archives of the Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of John Gould's exhibition, transporting us back to an era where the natural world was a source of endless fascination and discovery.
