Great Blue Turaco (Corythaeola cristata): A Vibrant and Distinctive Bird from the Old World Tropics This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the Great Blue Turaco (Corythaeola cristata), a captivating bird species native to the old world tropics. The image is taken from Rene Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon," published by Pourrat Freres in Paris in 1838. The Great Blue Turaco is a large, striking bird, with iridescent blue plumage covering most of its body. Its most distinctive feature is the prominent, helmet-like crest on its head, which is a blend of blue, green, and red hues. The turaco's beak is long, curved, and black, while its eyes are large and bright, adding to its expressive and captivating appearance. Turacos are part of the Musophagidae family, which is also known as the "fruit pigeons." They are omnivorous, feeding on fruits, seeds, flowers, and small invertebrates. The Great Blue Turaco is found in the forests of central and western Africa, from Cameroon to Angola. This engraving is a testament to the meticulous artistry and scientific accuracy of the time. The intricate details of the Great Blue Turaco's plumage, crest, and beak are beautifully captured, providing a window into the natural history of this fascinating bird species. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of zoological illustrations, showcasing the rich biodiversity of the old world tropics.
