EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph showcases a charming assembly of six distinct bird species: the White-throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis), Eastern Towhee (Pipilo erythrophthalmus), White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys), and Northern Waterthrush (Parkesia noveboracensis). The intricate illustration, inspired by an ornithological work by John James Audubon, was originally published in Benjamin Harry Warren's Report on the Birds of Pennsylvania in 1890 by E.K. Mayers in Harrisburg. The White-throated Sparrow, with its distinctive white stripe over its eye and yellow-striped head, stands proudly at the center. To its left, the Eastern Towhee, with its rust-colored back and white underparts, is perched on a branch, while the White-crowned Sparrow, with its black and white striped head, sits on a rock. The Northern Waterthrush, with its long, slender bill and brownish-gray plumage, is shown wading in the water, ready to strike at its prey. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that characterized ornithological illustrations of the 19th century in the United States. The use of chromolithography, a printing technique that allowed for vibrant colors and intricate detail, further enhances the visual appeal of this image. Whether appreciated for its historical significance or simply for its aesthetic value, this print is a must-have for any avian enthusiast or collector of natural history.
