EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the Eurasian Sparrowhawk, Accipiter nisus, also known as the White-breasted Sparrowhawk or Faucon a poitrine blanche. The intricate detail of this image is a testament to the masterful artistry of Jakob-Andreas Eisemann, who created this engraving based on an illustration from nature by Barbara Regina Dietzsch. The Eurasian Sparrowhawk is a bird of prey native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. With its distinctive hooded appearance, this raptor is well-adapted for hunting small birds, particularly sparrows, in wooded areas. This engraving is an exquisite example of the natural history illustrations found in Georg Wolfgang Knorr's Deliciae Naturae Selectae, also known as Kabinet van Zeldzaamheden der Natuur, or the Select Cabinet of Rarities of Nature. The work was published by Blusse and Son in Nuremberg in 1771 and was part of a private collection owned by Dr. Christoph Jacob Trew. The Wunderkammer, or Cabinet of Curiosities, was a popular form of collection during the Renaissance and Enlightenment periods, showcasing a diverse range of natural and artificial objects. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving not only highlights the beauty of the Eurasian Sparrowhawk but also reflects the fascination and curiosity of the time towards the natural world. This image is a reminder of the rich history of natural history illustration and the importance of preserving and studying the natural world for future generations.
