EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning coloured engraving titled "Chinese birds" by the German School of the 19th century. The artwork, part of a private collection, originates from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned publication "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children) between 1790 and 1830. The image features an array of exquisite avian species native to China. Among them are the resplendent Chinese golden pheasant and its elegant hen, accompanied by the enchanting Chinese silver pheasant with its equally graceful partner. Additionally, we can admire the striking Chinese sparrowhawk alongside its female counterpart. These intricate engravings beautifully depict Phasianus pictus (Chinese golden pheasant), Phasianus nycthemerus (Chinese silver pheasant), and Pavo bicalcaratus (peacock pheasant). Each bird is meticulously rendered with remarkable detail that highlights their vibrant plumage and distinctive characteristics. Published by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and now in public domain due to being out of copyright, this piece exemplifies both artistic mastery and scientific accuracy. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with nature's wonders throughout history. Bridgeman Images has impeccably preserved this invaluable snapshot into ornithological artistry for us to appreciate today. This print not only celebrates these magnificent creatures but also pays homage to the rich cultural heritage associated with Chinese fauna.
