EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Wied's Hummingbird, Ornismya wiedii, also known as the Wied's or Neuwied's Hummingbird, Trochilus cyanogenys, or Ornismya wiedii. The image is based on an illustration by Jean-Gabriel Pretre, created for Rene Primevere's "Lessons Natural History of the Colibri Genus of Hummingbirds," published by Arthus Bertrand in Paris in 1830. The hummingbird is shown in mid-flight, its iridescent feathers shimmering with an array of colors, from deep blue to vibrant green. The intricate details of its beak, wings, and body are beautifully rendered, showcasing the artist's skill and attention to detail. The Wied's Hummingbird is native to Central and South America, and is named after Prince Maximilian of Wied-Neuwied, who was an avid naturalist and explorer. This engraving is a testament to the fascination and curiosity that the natural world inspires, and serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting and preserving the diversity of species on our planet.
