EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Mocking Bird (Turdus Polyglottus), 1827-1838" is a masterpiece by renowned American artist John James Audubon. Measuring an impressive 88x62.4 cm, this print showcases Audubon's exceptional talent for capturing the beauty of nature. The Mocking Bird takes center stage in this artwork, its vibrant plumage and intricate details brought to life through delicate hand colouring. Perched on a branch against a pristine white background, the bird exudes elegance and grace as it sings its melodious tune. Audubon's meticulous attention to detail is evident not only in the depiction of the bird but also in the surrounding elements. The nest nestled among foliage on the ground adds depth and realism to the composition. A snake lurking nearby injects an element of danger into this otherwise serene scene. Published between 1827 and 1838 as part of Audubon's monumental work "The Birds of America" this engraving was expertly crafted by Robert Havell after Audubon's original illustration. It exemplifies both artists' dedication to capturing every nuance of their subject matter. With its exquisite colours and lifelike portrayal, this print serves as a testament to Audubon's status as one of America's greatest naturalist illustrators. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers even today, offering a glimpse into the rich biodiversity that once thrived across North America during the early nineteenth century.
