EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Strange birds" takes us on a journey into the enchanting world of avian wonders. Created by an anonymous German artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and showcases various extraordinary bird species. The composition features a diverse array of feathered creatures that are both mesmerizing and peculiar. Among them, we encounter the majestic Jabiru from Senegal, also known as the Saddlestork. Its elegant presence is complemented by the Maguaristorch, with its distinctive appearance capturing our attention. As our gaze wanders further across the image, we discover other fascinating inhabitants of this avian realm. The graceful White-necked Heron or Eastern Reef Heron stands tall alongside the striking Crowned Crane and Sarus Crane. Each bird possesses its own unique charm and allure. The engraving itself is derived from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned "Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children), published between 1790-1830. This work aimed to educate young minds about nature's beauty through intricate illustrations like these. Now preserved in all its glory within ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's collection, this artwork allows us to marvel at these remarkable creatures that once roamed our planet freely. Let it serve as a reminder of nature's boundless creativity and inspire us to cherish and protect Earth's magnificent biodiversity for generations to come.
