EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 43 from "Neilgherry Birds and Miscellaneous" (1858) presents a captivating illustration of the Anthracothorax sp. mango, a hummingbird species that graces the pages of this nineteenth-century natural history publication by Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn. The intricately detailed drawing showcases the vibrant, iridescent plumage of this small avian, with its long, slender beak and delicate wings folded neatly against its body. The hummingbird is perched on a branch, surrounded by lush, green foliage, and the luscious, juicy mango fruit hanging enticingly in the background. Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn, born in 1829, was a prolific naturalist and illustrator of her time. Her work, including this plate, showcases her exceptional talent in capturing the beauty and intricacies of the natural world. The Anthracothorax sp. mango is a hummingbird species that is commonly found in Central and South America. These birds are known for their ability to hover in mid-air by rapidly flapping their wings, a feat made possible by their high metabolism and unique physiology. The mango tree, a source of sustenance and commercial crop, is depicted in the background, its large, green leaves and luscious, tropical fruit providing a lush backdrop to the hummingbird. The mango is a popular fruit that is enjoyed for its sweet, juicy flesh and is widely cultivated in tropical regions around the world. This illustration is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the natural world and the talent of Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn in capturing it on paper. This plate, with its intricate details and beautiful composition, is a must-have for any natural history collection or for those with an appreciation for the natural world and the art of illustration. The Anthracothorax sp. mango and the mango tree are a perfect representation of the interconnectedness of the natural world and the beauty that can be found in the smallest of creatures and the largest of trees.
