EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, taken from Rene Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon," showcases two fascinating species of birds native to the Pacific Islands: the Yellow-capped Pygmy Parrot (Micropsitta keiensis) and the Groove-billed Ani (Crotophaga sulcirostris). The male and female Yellow-capped Pygmy Parrots are depicted perched on a branch, their vibrant yellow and green plumage contrasting against the lush foliage. The male sports a distinctive yellow cap, while the female's head is a more subdued green. In the foreground, a Groove-billed Ani pecks at the ground, its distinctive, grooved beak on full display. This intriguing bird, also known as the Casasian Ani, is a member of the shoebill stork family and is native to the Pacific coast of Central and South America. Its black plumage, white underparts, and striking beak make it a captivating subject. This illustration is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of 19th-century zoological illustration. The meticulous engraving and hand-coloring bring these birds to life, allowing us to appreciate their unique beauty and intricacies. The work of Rene Primevere and the team at Pourrat Freres in Paris, this engraving is a valuable addition to any collection of natural history or ornithology.
