EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 353 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases three distinct species of small, colorful birds native to North America: the Black-capped Chickadee (Parus atricapillus), the Chestnut-backed Chickadee (Parus rufescens), and the American Bushtit (Psaltriparus minimus). This exquisite print, created between 1835 and 1838, is a testament to the meticulous detail and artistic mastery of Audubon and his collaborators, R. Havell & Son of London. The Black-capped Chickadee, with its distinctive black cap and white cheeks, is a common bird found in deciduous and mixed forests throughout eastern North America. The Chestnut-backed Chickadee, on the other hand, is native to the western United States and Canada, and is easily identified by its chestnut-colored back and wings. The American Bushtit, a small, agile bird, is often found in open woodlands and forests, and is characterized by its long, thin, and pointed tail. Each bird is depicted perched on a branch, against a backdrop of lush, green foliage. The birds' vibrant plumage is beautifully rendered in hand-coloured aquatint, highlighting the intricacies of their feathers and the subtle variations in color and texture. The branch, adorned with the leaves of an angiosperm, a type of dicotyledon plant, adds a sense of depth and realism to the scene. This stunning print is an invaluable resource for ornithologists, naturalists, and bird enthusiasts alike, providing a detailed and accurate record of these birds for generations to come. It is a testament to Audubon's unwavering dedication to documenting the natural world and his remarkable ability to capture the essence of each bird in its most authentic form.
