EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-coloured lithograph captures the mesmerizing beauty of Bearded Helmetcrests, a species known as Oxypogon guerinii cyanolaemus. The print is part of an 1861 supplementary volume to "A Monograph of the Trochilidae, or Family of Hummingbirds" authored by renowned British ornithologist John Gould (1804-1881). The artwork showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors that define these magnificent creatures. Perched delicately on a branch, one can almost feel their presence as they rest and feed amidst a backdrop of lush foliage and blooming flowers. With its historical significance, this lithograph offers us a glimpse into the world of natural history during the 19th century. Richard Bowdler Sharpe's artistic talent shines through in this illustration, capturing not only the physical attributes but also the essence and gracefulness of these hummingbirds. Their distinct beards add to their allure, making them truly unique among their avian counterparts. As we admire this piece from London's Natural History Museum collection, it serves as a reminder that nature's wonders are timeless treasures worth preserving for future generations. This image transports us back in time while simultaneously connecting us with the rich biological diversity that exists within our natural world today.
