EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures the essence of an "African Beefeater" from 1864. The colour lithograph, created by the German School in the 19th century, showcases the intricate details of this magnificent bird. Part of a private collection, this image was published in Leopold Joseph Fitzinger's Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Vögel in ihren sämtlichen HauptformenA. The African Beefeater, also known as Buphaga africana, is depicted alongside two other species: Pastor roseus (rosy starling) and sturnus vulgaris (common starling). This illustration beautifully portrays their distinctive features and characteristics. From its striking plumage to its unique beak shape, every aspect of this avian creature is brought to life through this artwork. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown; however, their talent shines through in capturing the beauty and diversity found within nature. The ePurix Verlag Volker Christen has preserved this piece for generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back to a time when scientific exploration intertwined with artistic expression. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, humans were fascinated by the wonders of our natural world. Bridgeman Images has made it possible for us to enjoy and admire these timeless works of art. Through their efforts in preserving historical prints like these, they continue to inspire awe and appreciation
