EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate print showcases the vibrant plumage of the Blue-naped Chlorophonia, or Green-headed Manakin (Chlorophonia cyanea). Native to South America, this small, colorful bird is a resident of the tropical rainforests and mountainous regions. The Blue-naped Chlorophonia is easily identified by its distinctive blue nape, green head, and orange-yellow underparts. The intricate details of its feathers are beautifully captured in this engraving, which was drawn and engraved by the renowned English naturalist, John Latham. Latham's meticulous work is displayed in his seminal ornithological publication, "A General History of Birds," published in Winchester in 1823. The Blue-naped Chlorophonia is a popular subject in the study of ornithology, and this historic print serves as a testament to the enduring fascination with the natural world and the role of art in documenting it.
