EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "New known birds of prey" takes us back to the 19th century when Friedrich Justin Bertuch's Picture Book for Children was published. The print showcases a collection of magnificent avian predators that were newly discovered at the time. Among these awe-inspiring creatures is the majestic tawny eagle, with its piercing gaze and powerful wingspan. Next to it stands the cinereous harrier, displaying its elegant grey plumage as it soars through the sky. The red-backed hawk catches our attention with its vibrant crimson feathers, while the white-rumped hawk captivates us with its unique markings. Each bird in this engraving represents a fascinating species: Falco leucorrhous, Buteo leucorrhous, Falco polyosoma, Buteo polyosoma, Falco histrionicus, Circus cinereus, Falco rapax, and Aquila rapax. These names alone evoke a sense of wonder and curiosity about their habitats and behaviors. The intricate details captured by German School artists bring these birds to life on paper. Every feather seems meticulously etched into existence. This print serves as both an educational tool for children and an artistic masterpiece for all bird enthusiasts. Preserved in a private collection today but available for public appreciation thanks to ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and Bridgeman Images' efforts in making historical art accessible to all. Let this enchanting image transport you back in
