EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 76 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 5 (1873) showcases the elegant and graceful form of the White-winged Black Tern, scientifically known as Chlidonias leucopterus. This exquisitely hand-coloured lithograph captures the intricate details of this ninteenth century avian subject, providing an accurate and stunning representation of its anatomy. The White-winged Black Tern is a medium-sized tern, characterized by its long, pointed wings and distinctive white wingtips, which contrast sharply with its black body and grey wings. Its bill is long and slender, perfectly adapted for catching fish and other aquatic prey. The tern's legs are also long and yellow, allowing it to wade in shallow water with ease. This magnificent illustration portrays the bird in its natural habitat, outside, during daytime hours. The White-winged Black Tern is a Charadriiforme, belonging to the Laridae family, and is commonly found near the coasts and inland waters of the Northern Hemisphere. It is a migratory bird, spending its summers in the Arctic regions and winters in the southern hemisphere. John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain is a seminal work in the field of ornithology, featuring meticulously detailed illustrations of over 700 species of birds native to the British Isles. This plate, in particular, showcases the artist's mastery of the medium, with the White-winged Black Tern's anatomy rendered in remarkable detail and precision. The hand-colouring further enhances the image, adding depth and vibrancy to the tern's plumage. Overall, this illustration is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the avian world and the skill of the artist and craftsmen who brought it to life.
