EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of a female Frilled Coquette, Lophornis magnificus, also known as the Magnificent Hummingbird. The image is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Ornithology, specifically the volume dedicated to Hummingbirds, published in Edinburgh by W.H. Lizars in 1834. The Frilled Coquette is a small, vibrant hummingbird native to Central and South America. The female, depicted in this illustration, is adorned with iridescent green and purple plumage, with a striking white collar frilled with black feathers. Her long, curved beak is perfectly suited for extracting nectar from flowers, while her wings, with their intricate patterns and shimmering hues, are a testament to the natural world's intricate design. The meticulous attention to detail in this hand-colored steel engraving is truly remarkable. Each feather, each vein on the wings, and every contour of the bird's body is rendered with remarkable precision and artistry. The background, with its delicate foliage and intricate patterns, further enhances the beauty of the Frilled Coquette, making this an exquisite example of 19th-century natural history illustration. Sir William Jardine was a Scottish surgeon, naturalist, and explorer who amassed a vast collection of natural history specimens during his travels in the Far East. His Naturalist's Library, which included works on ornithology, zoology, and botany, was a groundbreaking contribution to the scientific community of the time. The publication of this volume on hummingbirds, featuring the stunning illustrations of the Frilled Coquette and other species, showcased the beauty and diversity of these fascinating creatures and helped advance our understanding of the natural world.
