EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 403 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases the captivating beauty of the Barrows Goldeneye (Bucephala islandica), depicted in this hand-coloured aquatint print. The meticulously detailed illustration highlights the distinctive features of this Anatidae species, with its long, sleek body, broadly rounded back, and distinctive green and white plumage. The goldeneye's large, expressive eyes, adorned with a golden ring, gaze intently out from the image, adding to the bird's captivating allure. Audubon's masterful anatomical accuracy is evident in the intricate depiction of the goldeneye's webbed feet, perfectly suited for swimming in cold water. The feathers on the bird's legs and feet are also meticulously rendered, adding to the overall realism of the illustration. The Barrows Goldeneye is a native of the Northern Hemisphere, and can be found in North America, Europe, and Asia. These birds are named for the explorer Robert Barrow, who first described the species in 1794. They are known for their distinctive head crest, which is most prominent in males during the breeding season. This stunning print, engraved, printed, and coloured by R. Havell (& Son) in London, is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of Audubon's work. The image captures the goldeneye in its natural habitat, outside, during daytime, providing a glimpse into the avian world of the Sauropsida order, specifically the Aves class. The intricate details of the feathers, the vibrant colours, and the lifelike quality of the bird's expression make this a truly remarkable work of art and a valuable addition to any collection.
