EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 56 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 2 (1873), features a stunning hand-coloured lithograph of the Common Nightingale (Luscinia megarhynchos). This exquisite illustration showcases the nightingale's distinctive long, curved beak, chestnut-brown back, and black-and-white wings, with intricate patterns of grey and brown feathers on its breast. The nightingale is depicted perched on a branch in a lush, green meadow, surrounded by vibrant flowers and foliage. The artist has captured the bird's alert and inquisitive expression, as it gazes intently at something in the distance. The Common Nightingale is a small, songbird belonging to the Muscicapidae family, known for its beautiful, melodic voice. Contrary to its name, this bird is not strictly nocturnal, but can be found singing during the daytime as well. The nightingale's nest, which is not shown in this illustration, is typically located on the ground, hidden among vegetation. This image is a testament to the remarkable artistry and attention to detail of John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain series. Produced during the 19th century, these hand-coloured lithographs were considered the most accurate and detailed representations of British birds at the time. The series was widely admired for its scientific accuracy, as well as its aesthetic appeal, and remains an important historical record of the natural history of Great Britain.
