EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate stipple engraving showcases two intriguing birds of the European woodlands: the Eurasian Jay, Garrulus glandarius, and the Spotted Nutcracker, Nucifraga caryocatactes. The image is taken from the esteemed "Dictionnaire de Naturaliste: Omnithologie" by Dumont de Sainte-Croix, published in Paris between 1816 and 1830. The Eurasian Jay, depicted on the left, is a highly intelligent and colorful bird, with its distinctive blue and black plumage adorned with white spots on its wings. Known for their ability to mimic various sounds, these birds are also skilled thieves, often taking food from other birds and hiding it in caches for later consumption. On the right, the Spotted Nutcracker, with its distinctive black and white markings, is a robust bird of the northern forests. These birds are omnivorous, feeding on seeds, nuts, fruits, and small animals. They are also known for their unique method of storing food, which involves cracking open nuts with a powerful beak and then burying them in the ground for later use. The illustration was created by the skilled hand of Jean Gabriel Pretre, a painter of natural history at Empress Josephine's zoo and later becoming the artist to the Museum of Natural History. The engraving was executed by Rebel, under the direction of Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, and published by F.G. Levrault. This beautiful work of art not only captures the essence of these birds but also showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of the time. A true testament to the natural history of the past, this engraving remains a captivating representation of the Eurasian Jay and Spotted Nutcracker.
