EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Passenger Pigeon, Blue-mountain Warbler, and Hemlock Warbler" takes us back to the early 19th century in America. Created by Alexander I Wilson and published between 1808-1814, this hand-colored engraving with etching on wove paper showcases the incredible artistry of that era. The image features three stunning bird species: the Passenger Pigeon, Blue-mountain Warbler, and Hemlock Warbler. Each bird is meticulously detailed with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The Passenger Pigeon stands out with its graceful posture and striking plumage while perched on a branch. The Blue-mountain Warbler captivates our attention with its vivid blue feathers contrasting against a lush green background. Lastly, the Hemlock Warbler enchants us with its delicate beauty as it delicately balances on another branch. Sadly, these birds are now extinct or endangered due to human activities such as deforestation and hunting. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of preserving our natural heritage for future generations. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this piece represents not only an artistic masterpiece but also an invaluable historical record of American ornithology during that time period. John G Warnicke's contribution to preserving this artwork ensures that we can still appreciate these magnificent creatures today.
