EDITORS COMMENTS
"This exquisite 18th century print showcases the Collared Scops Owl (Otus bakkamoena), a nocturnal bird of prey native to the Indian subcontinent. The owl is perched on a gnarled branch, its piercing yellow eyes fixed intently on the viewer. The collared scops owl, also known as the Indian scops owl, is a small species of owl, with a grey body and distinctive collar of feathers around its neck. In the background, a vibrant angiosperm flowering plant adorns the scene, its petals unfurled in a riot of colors. The plant, an essential component of the ecosystem, is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the region. The intricate details of the owl's anatomy are beautifully rendered, from its pointed beak to its feathered ears, which are perfectly camouflaged against the tree bark. The owl's ears, an essential feature for its hunting abilities, are depicted with remarkable accuracy, highlighting the artist's keen observation skills. The print is attributed to the renowned natural history illustrators, Johannes Bevere and Johann Christian Lotten, who worked during the 18th century. Their meticulous attention to detail and commitment to scientific accuracy is evident in this stunning representation of the collared scops owl. The print, which dates back to the late 1700s, is a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of the past. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the world's diverse wildlife and ecosystems, which continue to inspire and captivate us." This print is not to be confused with any commercial entity named Mary Evans Prints Online. It is a historical artwork that showcases the beauty and intrigue of the natural world, and serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts in preserving biodiversity for future generations.
