EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored steel engraving depicts the Adult Male Antillean Mango, Anthracothorax dominicus aurulentus (previously known as Trochilus aurulentus), a stunningly beautiful hummingbird species endemic to the Caribbean islands. The illustration was created by Jean-Gabriel Pretre and masterfully engraved by Coutant for Rene Primevere's "Lessons Natural History of the Colibri Genus of Hummingbirds," published in Paris by Arthus Betrand in 1830. The Antillean Mango is a medium-sized hummingbird, with an iridescent green back, a brilliant orange-red throat, and a long, curved, black bill. The male's feathers are adorned with metallic green, blue, and purple hues, making it a true gem of the natural world. The Antillean Mango is a vital component of the Caribbean ecosystem, playing a crucial role in pollinating various plant species. This intricately detailed engraving showcases the exceptional artistry of the 19th century natural history illustrators and engravers. The delicate shading and precise lines bring the Antillean Mango to life, providing a captivating glimpse into the natural history of this enchanting hummingbird species. The Antillean Mango remains an essential subject of scientific and artistic interest, inspiring generations of naturalists and artists to explore and document the wonders of the natural world.
