EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases a collection of new ratite birds, beautifully depicted by the German School in the 19th century. The print is part of a private collection and originates from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned "Picture Book for Children" published between 1790 and 1830. The artwork features an array of fascinating avian species, including the lead-colored Trappe or Blautrappe, the eared Trappe or Flaggentrappe, the spotted Dickfus or Kaptriel, the large-beaked Dickfus or Rifftriel, and the Kiebitz with a cap or Javakiebitz. These bird varieties are identified as Otis caerulescens, Eupodotis caerulescens, Otis aurita, Sypheotides indicus, Oedicnemus maculosus, Burhinus capensis, Oedicnemus magnirostris, Esacus magnirostris, Vanellus cucullatus, and Vanellus macropterus. Each bird is meticulously illustrated with intricate details that bring their unique characteristics to life. From the vibrant plumage to their distinctive beaks and feathers patterns - every element has been carefully captured by this talented artist. This historical engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insight into these lesser-known ratite birds. It stands as a testament to both artistic skill and scientific exploration during its time.
