EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving, created by Pfitzer after an illustration by Adolph Fries for Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville's Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History) published in Paris between 1834 and 1839, showcases a captivating tableau of the White-ruffed Manakin (Corapipo altera) and the Blue-backed Manakin (Chiroxiphia pareola) in their natural habitat, surrounded by a Manchineel Tree (Hippomane mancinella) and a Mandrake (Mandragora officinaris). The White-ruffed Manakin, a small bird native to Central and South America, is depicted in full plumage, with its distinctive white ruff and vibrant orange-red chest. The Blue-backed Manakin, on the other hand, is shown with its iridescent blue back and greenish-yellow underparts. Both birds are known for their elaborate courtship displays, which involve intricate dance moves and vibrant coloration. The Manchineel Tree, also known as the "beach apple," is a small, evergreen tree that is native to the Caribbean and Central America. Its leaves and bark contain a milky sap that can cause skin irritation and blisters, and its fruit is toxic if ingested. Despite this, the tree is an important source of food and shelter for many animals, including the manakins. The Mandrake, a plant native to the Mediterranean region, is depicted in the background, with its distinctive root shape resembling a human figure. The plant has a long history of use in traditional medicine and magic, and its root was believed to have aphrodisiac properties. This stunning engraving not only captures the beauty of these fascinating creatures and plants but also provides a glimpse into the natural history of the past. It is a testament to the skill and artistry of the illustrators and engravers of the 19th century and a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations.
