EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 222 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," features the elegant and intricately detailed depiction of the American White Ibis, Eudocimus albus. This hand-colored aquatint print, engraved, printed, and colored by R. Havell (& Son) of London, showcases the ibis in its natural habitat, wading in a marshy wetland environment. The ibis is bald, with its distinctive long, downward-curved bill and long, decapod legs, which are perfectly adapted for capturing its prey, primarily arthropods such as crustaceans and crayfish. The ibis's anatomy is beautifully rendered in this exquisite print, with its head tilted slightly to the side, revealing the intricate details of its feathers and the delicate scales on its legs. The ibis's bill, a marvel of nature, is shown open, revealing the pinkish-red interior, which is lined with sensitive filaments that help it detect the slightest vibrations in the water. The American White Ibis is a wading bird that is typically found in the daytime, making it a fascinating addition to Audubon's collection. The print captures the bird's graceful posture, with its long, slender neck and elegant curves, creating a breathtaking visual representation of this unique and fascinating creature. This plate is a testament to the extraordinary artistry and attention to detail that went into the creation of Audubon's "Birds of America," making it an invaluable resource for ornithologists, naturalists, and art enthusiasts alike.
