EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph showcases two exquisite tropical birds, the Resplendent Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno) and the Purple-rumped Sunbird (Nectarinia zeylonica). The image is taken from the Victorian-era publication "Beautiful Birds in Far-Off Lands" by Mary and Elizabeth Kirby, published by T. Nelson in London in 1872. The Resplendent Quetzal, a national symbol of Guatemala and Costa Rica, is depicted in all its resplendent glory. With its vibrant green body, red chest, and iridescent blue-green wings and tail, this bird is a true marvel of the exotic tropical world. The Quetzal is a threatened species, with habitat loss being a significant threat to its population. In the foreground, the Purple-rumped Sunbird, with its striking purple rump and orange chest, adds a burst of color to the image. This small, vibrant bird is native to Central and East Africa and is a common visitor to gardens and forests. Mary and Elizabeth Kirby were two Victorian sisters who wrote numerous natural history books for children, inspiring a generation of young minds to appreciate the natural world. Their publications, filled with beautiful illustrations, provided a window into the exotic and mysterious lands far from their readers' homes. This chromolithograph, with its intricate details and vivid colors, is a testament to the sisters' dedication to documenting the natural world and sharing it with future generations. The image remains a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and diversity of the natural world that continues to inspire us today.
