EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate print showcases the vibrant and captivating Crimson Sunbird, Aethopyga siparaja seheriae, also known as the Goulpourah Creeper. The image, drawn and engraved by the renowned English naturalist John Latham, is taken from his seminal work, "A General History of Birds," published in Winchester in 1822. The Crimson Sunbird is a small, stunning bird endemic to the Western Ghats and the Nilgiri Hills of southern India. With its brilliant crimson plumage and iridescent green wings, this bird is a true embodiment of nature's beauty. The male Crimson Sunbird is particularly striking, with a long, curved beak and a distinctive white patch on its lower belly. The Crimson Sunbird is a nectarivore and is often found near flowering trees and shrubs. It is an important pollinator in its ecosystem, and its vibrant colors serve as a warning to potential predators. This intricately detailed print is a testament to Latham's exceptional skill as an ornithologist and artist. The meticulous hand-coloring brings the Crimson Sunbird to life, capturing its essence and allure. Latham's work was groundbreaking in its time, and this print remains a valuable and captivating addition to any collection of natural history or ornithology.
