EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Sarus crane, also known as Antigone antigone. The Indian crane is depicted in all its glory, with vibrant colors and intricate details brought to life through handcoloured woodblock engraving. This particular illustration is a reproduction of George Edwards' original work from his renowned publication, "The Natural History of Birds" which was published in 1815 by Brightly and Childs. The Sarus crane holds a vulnerable status in the animal kingdom, making this image even more precious. Its elegant stature and graceful movements are beautifully captured in this artistic representation. The woodcut technique used adds depth and texture to the artwork, enhancing its visual appeal. Charles Brightly's printing and stereotype foundry played an essential role in bringing this masterpiece to life. Teaming up with John Firby Childs, they established themselves as prominent figures within the printing industry during the Georgian era. This scientific illustration not only serves as a stunning piece of art but also contributes to our understanding of ornithology and zoology. It allows us to appreciate the beauty of birds while providing valuable insights into their characteristics and behavior. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a nature lover, this print offers a glimpse into the world of wildlife animals like never before. Let it transport you to a realm where several animals coexist harmoniously amidst breathtaking landscapes – truly capturing the essence of wild life itself.
