EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 23 of the Loten Collection of Coloured Drawings presents a captivating illustration of the Fulvous-breasted Woodpecker, Dendrocopos macei analis, by Pieter Cornelis de Bevere, created between 1754 and 1757. De Bevere, a Flemish artist born in 1710, meticulously captured the vibrant details of this avian subject, showcasing its distinctive features. The Fulvous-breasted Woodpecker, also known as the Red-crowned Woodpecker, is a medium-sized bird belonging to the Picidae family, within the Piciformes order. This woodpecker is native to Central and South America, and is easily recognizable by its long, red moustache, red crown, and fulvous (yellowish-brown) breast. In the illustration, the bird is depicted perched on a tree trunk, its long, curved beak poised for drilling into the bark in search of insects and larvae. The intricate details of the woodpecker's plumage, from the red and black feathers on its back to the yellowish-brown feathers on its chest, are rendered with exceptional accuracy and artistry. The artist's use of color and shading adds depth and texture to the illustration, making it a stunning representation of this fascinating bird species. This exquisite illustration, produced during the 18th century, is a testament to the skill and dedication of Pieter Cornelis de Bevere and the Loten Collection, which continues to provide valuable insights into the natural world of the past.
