EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of Mademoiselle crane, also known as the Numidian crane or Ardea virgo. The intricate illustration was created by Ann and Emily Hayes, under the guidance of William Hayes, for his renowned collection titled "Portraits of Rare and Curious Birds from the Menagery of Osterly Park". The graceful posture and delicate features of this avian wonder are brought to life through meticulous detailing and vibrant colors. Every stroke on the copperplate engraving captures the essence of Mademoiselle crane's elegance, making it a true masterpiece in ornithology. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to the 18th century when such illustrations were highly sought after for their scientific accuracy and aesthetic appeal. The collaboration between Ann and Emily Hayes demonstrates their exceptional talent in capturing nature's wonders with precision. Mademoiselle crane stands tall amidst a backdrop that hints at her natural habitat – perhaps an open field or wetland where she gracefully roams. This print is not only a visual delight but also serves as a reminder of our responsibility to cherish and protect these rare species. With its rich history and artistic brilliance, this handcoloured copperplate engraving is truly a treasure worth admiring. It invites us into a world where art meets science, showcasing both the beauty and fragility of our natural world.
