EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the vibrant plumage of the Amazonian Motmot, Momotus momota, also known as the Blue-crowned Motmot or the Brasilian Motmot (Momota brasiliensis). The illustration was meticulously drawn and engraved by the skilled hand of Richard Polydore Nodder and published in George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's The Naturalist's Miscellany in London, 1806. The Amazonian Motmot is a native bird species of the Neotropical region, primarily found in the Amazon Basin and its surrounding areas. With its striking blue crown, black and white striped head, and long, graduated tail feathers, this bird is a true visual delight. The Motmot family, to which the Amazonian Motmot belongs, is known for their unique appearance and intriguing behavior. They are often referred to as "holesitters" due to their habit of creating nesting cavities in trees using their beaks. This illustration serves as a testament to the natural history and zoological exploration of the 19th century. The intricate details captured in the engraving provide a glimpse into the natural world of the Amazon Rainforest, showcasing the beauty and diversity of its avian inhabitants. The use of hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the illustration, making it a captivating work of art and a valuable historical record.
