EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored steel engraving depicts a juvenile Annas hummingbird, Calypte anna, in intricate detail. The illustration is based on an original work by Jean-Gabriel Pretre, as rendered by the skilled hand of engraver Coutant for Rene Primevere's "Lessons Natural History of the Colibri Genus of Hummingbirds," published by Arthus Bertrand in Paris in 1830. The Annas hummingbird, also known as the Anna's hummingbird or Costa's hummingbird, is a vibrant and captivating species native to the western United States and Mexico. Known for their iridescent feathers and agile flight, hummingbirds are renowned for their ability to hover in mid-air by rapidly flapping their wings 12-80 times per second. This juvenile Annas hummingbird is depicted with a slightly different plumage than its adult counterpart. The young bird's feathers are still in their immature stages, displaying a soft, muted coloration compared to the bright hues of the adult. The juvenile's bill is also shorter and straighter than the curved, downward-pointing bill of the adult. The intricate details of the engraving showcase the exquisite beauty of this hummingbird species, with each feather and contour meticulously rendered. The background features various flowers, likely native to the hummingbird's habitat, adding to the overall charm of the image. This stunning print is a testament to the artistry and natural history knowledge of the time, providing a glimpse into the natural world and the fascination with the wonders of the hummingbird genus.
