EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite head of the violet turaco, also known as the violet plantain eater or Musophaga violacea. The image, captured by William Home Lizars (1788-1859), is a handcoloured steel engraving that beautifully portrays the intricate details of this magnificent bird. The vibrant hues of purple and green on its plumage are truly mesmerizing, making it stand out among other avian species. With its striking crest and piercing eyes, the violet turaco exudes an air of elegance and regality. William John Swainson's illustration serves as the inspiration for this artwork, which was featured in Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ornithology. Published in 1837 by Lizars in Edinburgh, this piece is a testament to both artistic skill and scientific observation. As we delve into this image, we are transported to Western Africa where these birds can be found. They gracefully soar through lush forests and feast on ripe plantains with their specialized bill designed for such delicacies. This print not only captures the beauty of one particular creature but also reminds us of our planet's rich biodiversity. It serves as a reminder to appreciate and protect these incredible wildlife animals that share our world.
