EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 16: Campephilus principalis, or Ivory-billed Woodpecker, from The Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands (1731-43) by Mark Catesby. This exquisite hand-colored etching, measuring 380 x 255 mm, showcases the magnificent Ivory-billed Woodpecker (Campephilus principalis), a bird native to the southeastern United States and the Caribbean. The Ivory-billed Woodpecker, with its distinctive crest, long, ivory bill, and vibrant plumage, was a subject of great fascination during the 18th century, particularly for naturalists and collectors. The intricate detail of this illustration reveals the bird's impressive features, including its large, red eyes, black and white feathers, and the distinctive shape of its bill, which is longer and more curved than that of other woodpeckers. The Ivory-billed Woodpecker is shown perched on a tree branch, clutching a berry in its beak, while several more berries are scattered around it. The etching also highlights the bird's long, pointed tail feathers and its broad wings, which are spread slightly, suggesting that it may be about to take flight. This illustration is a testament to the exceptional artistry and natural history knowledge of Mark Catesby, who spent over a decade traveling throughout the Americas, documenting the diverse flora and fauna of the region. The Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands is considered one of the most important works of natural history from the 18th century, and this plate is a particularly striking example of the beauty and scientific accuracy of Catesby's work. The Ivory-billed Woodpecker, which was once abundant in the swamps and forests of the southeastern United States, is now considered critically endangered, with only a handful of sightings reported in recent decades. This illustration serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and documenting the wonders of nature for future generations.
