EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful hand-colored steel engraving depicts two exquisitely detailed birds: the Red-legged Partridge (Lectures rufa) and the Grey Partridge (Perdix perdix, also known as the Common Partridge or Perdrix grise). The image is taken from the "Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle" (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History), a comprehensive and visually stunning work by the renowned French naturalist Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The illustration was created by the skilled hands of Adolph Fries and masterfully engraved by du Casse. The Red-legged Partridge, as its name suggests, is easily identified by its distinctive red legs and orange-brown plumage with black and white markings. Native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa, this bird is a popular game species and is known for its ability to fly long distances. In contrast, the Grey Partridge sports a greyish-brown coloration with black and white stripes on its sides and a white belly. This bird is also native to Europe and Asia and is often found in open grasslands and farmland. The intricate details of the feathers, the lifelike expressions on the birds' faces, and the naturalistic background create a captivating and immersive experience for the viewer. This engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific accuracy of the time, providing a glimpse into the natural world and showcasing the beauty of these two fascinating partridge species.
