EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate print showcases the captivating White-throated Dipper, also known as the Water Ouzel (Cinclus cinclus). The intricate detail of this 19th-century artwork was drawn and engraved by the talented George Graves for his seminal work, "British Ornithology," published in Walworth in 1821. Graves was a remarkable polymath, excelling in various fields such as bookselling, publishing, art, and engraving. The White-throated Dipper is a distinctive bird, with its black and white plumage, distinctive crest, and distinctive habit of dipping itself in the water while foraging. This bird is a resident of Europe, Asia, and North America, and is well-adapted to living near water. The artistry of this print is truly breathtaking. The delicate handcoloring brings the White-throated Dipper to life, capturing the intricacies of its feathers and the vibrancy of its colors. The engraving itself is a marvel of technical skill, with each line and detail expertly etched into the copperplate. Graves' "British Ornithology" was a groundbreaking work, featuring high-quality illustrations of a wide range of British birds. This White-throated Dipper print is a testament to Graves' dedication to natural history and his exceptional artistic abilities. Today, it serves as a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of ornithology during the early 19th century.
