EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 288 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases the intricately detailed illustration of the Lesser Yellowlegs (Tringa flavipes), a wading bird belonging to the Charadriiformes order and the Scolopacidae family. This print, created between 1834 and 1835, is an original double elephant folio, hand-coloured aquatint engraving, printed and coloured by R. Havell (& Son) in London. The illustration depicts the Lesser Yellowlegs in its natural habitat, standing gracefully in a Carolina swamp, surrounded by lush trees and vegetation. The bird's distinctive yellow legs and bills are prominently displayed, providing an anatomical glimpse into its unique features. The intricate details of the feathers, scales, and textures are expertly rendered, bringing the Lesser Yellowlegs to life. The trees in the background are meticulously illustrated, their branches adorned with leaves and their trunks textured with bark, adding depth and dimension to the scene. The daytime setting is captured with the sun casting dappled light through the trees, creating a serene and picturesque atmosphere. The Sauropsida classification, which includes birds and reptiles, is reflected in the anatomy of the Lesser Yellowlegs, showcasing the intricate relationship between avian and reptilian structures. This stunning print serves as a testament to Audubon's unparalleled skill as a naturalist and artist, providing a window into the natural world of the past.
