EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 424 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases an intriguing assemblage of four avian species perched on a branch against the backdrop of a serene evening scene. The first bird, Molothrus ater, is the common name for the American Crow, a large, intelligent bird belonging to the Corvidae family and the order Passeriformes. The second bird, Passerella iliaca, is the Eastern Towhee, a New World sparrow with distinctive brown and black plumage and a distinctive "drink-your-tea" call. The third bird, Carpodacus mexicanus, is the Mexican Bullock's Oriole, a vibrant, colorful bird with a distinctive crest and a diet primarily consisting of fruit and insects. The final bird, Passeriformes Passeridae family member, is the Northern Cardinal, a striking bird with a bright red body, black mask, and crest, native to North America. This exquisite plate, measuring approximately 39 x 26 inches, is a hand-colored aquatint engraving, meticulously produced by R. Havell (& Son) in London between 1835 and 1838. The intricate details of each bird's plumage, beak, and other distinguishing features are brought to life through the masterful use of color. The image captures the essence of these birds in their natural habitat, adding to the overall beauty and allure of Audubon's magnum opus. This plate is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of John James Audubon and the skill of the engravers and colorists who brought his vision to life. The combination of the birds' diverse appearances and the tranquil evening setting makes for a captivating and visually stunning work of art.
