This print titled "Lesser Red-poll, 1837" showcases the remarkable artistic talent of Robert Havell. Created in the 19th century, this hand-colored engraving and aquatint on Whatman wove paper brings to life the beauty of American wildlife. The focal point of the image is a vibrant Lesser Red-poll bird perched delicately on a snowberry plant, its colorful plumage contrasting against the snowy backdrop. Havell's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing not only the intricate patterns and textures of both bird and plant but also conveying a sense of harmony between nature's elements. The artist's skillful use of color adds depth and dimension to this ornithological illustration, making it an exquisite piece that seamlessly blends artistry with scientific accuracy. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this artwork stands as a testament to Havell's contribution to American art history.
