EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Pied Crow (Corvus albus), also known as the Senegal White-backed Crow or the Senegal Pied Crow. The image is taken from William John Swainson's "Birds of Western Africa," published in Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ornithology, in Edinburgh in 1837. Swainson's meticulous illustration captures the splendid beauty of this crow, with its glossy black plumage contrasting sharply against its white back and wings. The Pied Crow is a large bird, measuring around 46 cm in length, and is a member of the corvid family, which also includes crows, rooks, and ravens. The Pied Crow is native to sub-Saharan Africa and can be found in a variety of habitats, from savannas and grasslands to forests and wetlands. This bird is an omnivore, feeding on a diverse diet that includes insects, reptiles, amphibians, rodents, and fruits. The Pied Crow is also known for its distinctive call, which is a loud, cawing sound that can be heard from a distance. This engraving, produced by William Lizars, showcases the intricate details of Swainson's illustration, with the Pied Crow's golden eared tufts, sharp beak, and piercing eyes all beautifully rendered. The handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning representation of this fascinating bird. The Pied Crow is not only a beautiful creature but also an important part of the African ecosystem, playing a role in controlling pest populations and dispersing seeds. This historic print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the skill of the artists and craftsmen who captured it.
