EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving showcases the vibrant beauty of the Fiery Topaz, or Topaza pyra, a hummingbird species native to Central and South America. The image captures the male bird in all its resplendent glory, adorned with iridescent topaz-colored feathers, as it tenderly attends to its young nestled within a delicate, woven nest. The intricate details of the bird's plumage and the delicate textures of the nest are masterfully rendered in the engraving process, bringing the viewer closer to the natural world and the wonders of these fascinating creatures. The Fiery Topaz is a medium-sized hummingbird, with males displaying an iridescent orange-red body and females having a more subdued greenish-brown appearance. They are known for their distinctive forked tails and long, curved bills. These birds are found in various habitats, including forests, gardens, and savannas, and feed primarily on nectar from flowers using their long, extendable tongues. This stunning engraving is taken from W.C.L. Martin's "A General History of Humming-birds or the Trochilidae," published by Bohn in London in 1852. The work was produced in collaboration with renowned natural history illustrators John Gould and John Woodhouse, who meticulously documented the natural history and beauty of these captivating birds. The hand-coloring further enhances the engraving, adding depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true masterpiece of natural history art.
