EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving showcases the majestic beauty of three owl species: the Eurasian eagle-owl, long-eared owl, and scops owl. The print, created by Edouard Travies in 1839, captures these magnificent creatures in intricate detail. The first bird depicted is the Eurasian eagle-owl (Bubo bubo), also known as the grand duc or great horned owl. With its piercing yellow eyes and prominent ear tufts, this formidable predator exudes power and grace. Next to it stands the long-eared owl (Asio otus), a master of camouflage with its mottled plumage blending seamlessly into its surroundings. Its distinctive "ear" tufts are actually just feathers that add to its overall mystique. Completing this trio is the European scops-owl (Otus scops), a small but enchanting creature known for its haunting call during twilight hours. This diminutive owl captivates with its expressive eyes and delicate features. Handcoloured by Guyard after an illustration by Edouard Travies from Achille Richards Oeuvres Completes de Buffon, this engraving beautifully captures each bird's unique characteristics. It serves as a testament to both scientific exploration and artistic craftsmanship prevalent during that era. Displayed against a backdrop of French culture and natural history, this print offers viewers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity found within France's wildlife habitats. Whether you're an avid birder or simply appreciate nature's wonders, this exquisite artwork will surely leave you in awe of these remarkable avian creatures.
