This print showcases the exquisite beauty of a Mistle thrush, captured in the 19th century by Scottish naturalist William MacGillivray. The image is part of his renowned collection titled "Watercolour drawings of British Animals" (1831-1841), which serves as a testament to MacGillivray's passion for ornithology and zoological studies. The Mistle thrush, scientifically known as Turdus viscivorus, stands alone on Plate 123, emanating an air of elegance and grace. Its vibrant plumage is meticulously depicted through delicate watercolor strokes, showcasing its distinct features with remarkable precision. This artwork not only captures the essence of this European songbird but also provides valuable insights into the historical context and biological significance that surrounded it during the early 1800s. As we delve into this piece from our Natural History Museum in London's archives, we are transported back in time to appreciate both the artistic mastery and scientific curiosity that defined this era.
