EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of a Siberian blue robin, Larvivora cyane. The image, captured by the British School in the 18th-19th century, is a handcoloured woodblock engraving from "The Natural History of Birds" publication by Brightly and Childs. The vibrant blue plumage of this robin species is brought to life through meticulous artistic detail. Every feather seems to shimmer with an ethereal glow, making it impossible to look away. The intricate woodcut technique used in this engraving adds depth and texture to the bird's delicate features. Published in Bungay, Suffolk in 1815, this artwork represents a collaboration between Charles Brightly and John Firby Childs. Their partnership resulted in stunning scientific illustrations that continue to captivate audiences even today. This piece serves as both an ornithological study and a work of art. It transports us back to the Georgian and Regency eras when natural history was at its peak of fascination. Through this illustration, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our diverse avian species for future generations. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this remarkable print from Fine Art Finder's collection. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of nature but also the skillful craftsmanship behind scientific illustration during that time period.
