EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of art from "The Naturalists Library, Ornithology" collection by William Home Lizars. The image features two magnificent birds native to West Africa - the Senegal Touraco and the Violet Plantain Eater. Created between 1833 and 1865, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of these exotic creatures. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring these birds to life, making them appear almost three-dimensional. Set against a tropical backdrop, their feathers glisten in shades of violet and green, creating a mesmerizing sight for any nature enthusiast. As part of the frontispiece in this ornithological volume, this print exemplifies Lizars' dedication to showcasing the wonders of natural history through his engravings. It serves as both an educational resource for scientists and a visual delight for art lovers alike. James Stewart's involvement in this project is also worth noting as he collaborated with Lizars on several prints within "The Naturalists Library". Together, they successfully captured the beauty and diversity found within Africa's avian population. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also highlights the importance of preserving our planet's rich biodiversity. It serves as a reminder that there is still so much more waiting to be discovered about our natural world.
