EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Pigeons, 1833-39" showcases the exquisite beauty and diversity of these beloved birds. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this print is a testament to their skillful craftsmanship and attention to detail. The artwork is part of a larger collection called "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" published between 1833 and 1839 by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. This comprehensive dictionary aimed to capture the wonders of the natural world through stunning illustrations like this one. In this particular image, we see various species of pigeons depicted with incredible precision. From the Colombe à croupion d'or (Golden-tailed Dove) to the Columbar aromatique (Aromatic Pigeon) and Columbi-Galline poignarde (Stabbing Pigeon), each bird is meticulously rendered, showcasing its unique characteristics and plumage. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers valuable insights into avian diversity during that era. It reminds us of our enduring fascination with these creatures who have long been companions in our urban landscapes. Now available for viewing in private collections worldwide, this remarkable engraving continues to captivate art enthusiasts and ornithologists alike. Its timeless appeal transcends boundaries and invites viewers to appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and the natural beauty it celebrates
