EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled "Little Blue Penguin, Eudyptula minor, and Tufted Puffin, Fratercula cirrhata," is an exquisite example of 19th-century zoological illustration. The print, taken from René Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon," published by Pourrat Frères in Paris in 1838, showcases two fascinating species of seabirds: the Little Blue Penguin and the Tufted Puffin. The Little Blue Penguin, also known as the Fairy Penguin or the Little Penguin, is the smallest of all penguin species. Native to New Zealand and Australia, these birds are characterized by their distinctive blue-black plumage and white underparts. They are excellent swimmers and divers, feeding primarily on fish and squid. The Tufted Puffin, or the Rhinoceros Auklet, is a distinctive seabird found in the North Pacific Ocean. This bird is easily recognizable by its large, colorful bills and distinctive tufts of feathers on their heads. They are excellent divers, able to stay underwater for up to two minutes, and feed primarily on fish and squid. The intricate detail and vibrant colors in this engraving highlight the unique features of both species, providing a captivating glimpse into the natural world of the past. The illustration is a testament to the skill and artistry of the engraver, as well as the dedication of naturalists and illustrators to documenting the natural world for future generations.
