EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored lithograph from John Gould's "The Birds of Great Britain" captures the beauty and intricacy of nature in the 19th century. Plate 87 features the Crex crex, commonly known as the corncrake, a bird that belongs to the family Gruiformes. In this illustration, we see a brown-hued corncrake perched on a flowering plant, surrounded by vibrant angiosperms. The delicate details and lifelike portrayal showcase Gould's exceptional talent as an illustrator. The chick beside its parent adds an endearing touch to this scene. Gould's work not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also contributes to our understanding of avian species. By meticulously depicting each feather and capturing their locomotion with precision, he provides valuable insights into these magnificent creatures. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a day in the life of these birds. It is a reminder of how interconnected animals and plants are within their natural habitats.
