The print is a part of a private collection and was originally published in A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la natureA between 1833 and 1839 by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The image depicts a Fork-tailed Drongo, also known as Trauerdongo or Duc. This bird species, scientifically named Dicrurus adsimilis, is beautifully illustrated with intricate details that bring it to life on paper. Its forked tail feathers are elegantly displayed against a backdrop of lush foliage. The artist's skillful use of colour and shading adds depth and realism to this enchanting illustration.

This remarkable artwork captures not only the beauty but also the scientific significance of these avian species from centuries past. It serves as both an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts and an educational tool for those interested in exploring natural history through visual
