EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving by William Hayes showcases the Common hill myna, also known as the Minor grakle. The exquisite illustration is taken from "Portraits of Rare and Curious Birds from the Menagery of Osterly Park" a publication released in London in 1794. Hayes's attention to detail brings this beautiful bird to life on paper, capturing its unique features and vibrant colors. The Common hill myna, scientifically named Gracula religiosa, belongs to the family Sturnidae and is native to South Asia. Its striking appearance with glossy black feathers, bright yellow eye patches, and a vivid red beak makes it an enchanting subject for ornithology enthusiasts. The artwork transports us back to the 18th century when naturalists were fascinated by rare species like this one. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and scientific exploration during that era. Florilegius has preserved this remarkable piece of avian artistry for modern audiences through their meticulous reproduction process. This print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of nature but also the talent of artists who dedicated themselves to documenting it. Whether you are an avid bird lover or simply admire fine art, this handcoloured engraving will surely captivate your imagination and add a touch of elegance wherever it is displayed.
