EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by the skilled artist Peter Brown for his 'New Illustrations of Zoology' publication in 1776, showcases an intriguing encounter between various avian species in an African landscape. At the center of the image, a majestic Golden Eagle, Aquila chrysaetos, spreads its wings wide, its piercing gaze fixed on the viewer. The eagle's golden plumage shines brilliantly against the backdrop of the African savannah. To the right, a vibrant African Fire Finch, Lagonosticta species, perches on a branch, its fiery red and black plumage contrasting starkly with the eagle's regal appearance. The finch's bright colors serve as a stark reminder of the diverse and rich palette of life in the African continent. However, the scene takes an unexpected turn as a Black-backed Falcon, Falco niger, swoops down from above, its sharp talons outstretched, ready to seize the unsuspecting fire finch. The falcon's dark plumage and menacing expression add an element of drama and tension to the image. This intriguing tableau highlights the complex web of life in the African wilderness, where even the most seemingly disparate creatures are connected through the natural order of things. Peter Brown's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of each bird's unique characteristics make this engraving a true masterpiece of ornithological art.
