EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored steel engraving showcases the vibrant and intricately detailed features of the male Green Mango Hummingbird, Anthracothorax viridis. The hummingbird, also known as the Green-throated Mango or the Green-throated Mountain Gem, is a small, iridescent bird native to the Caribbean and Central America. The engraving, created by Coutant after an illustration by Jean-Gabriel Pretre, is a stunning example of the meticulous craftsmanship of the 19th century. The artist's keen observation and attention to detail are evident in the lifelike representation of the bird's long, curved beak, shimmering green and black plumage, and the delicate, intricate patterns on its wings and tail. The Green Mango Hummingbird is a beloved species among ornithologists and bird enthusiasts for its striking appearance and unique behaviors. Males are particularly distinctive for their bright green throats and chests, which contrast sharply with their black backs and tails. They are also known for their agility and ability to hover in mid-air by rapidly flapping their wings, a feat made possible by their high metabolism and unique heart structure. This beautiful engraving is a testament to the natural history of the Green Mango Hummingbird and the artistry of the time. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and documenting the wonders of the natural world for future generations.
