EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunningly intricate and lifelike image showcases the Merlin, Falco columbarius, a small, agile falcon belonging to the Falconidae family. The Merlin, also known as the European Merlin or the pigeon hawk, is a bird of prey native to Europe, Asia, and North America. This exquisite plate is taken from John James Audubon's iconic work, "Birds of America," published between 1827 and 1830. The double elephant folio edition, which measures an impressive 39 1/2 x 29 inches, is considered the definitive work on North American birds. The Merlin plate (Plate 75) was engraved, printed, and hand-coloured by R. Havell & Son in London. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate feather patterns, the sharp lines, and the lifelike expression on the Merlin's face. The use of hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the Merlin to life. The Merlin is depicted perched on a branch, its body poised and alert, with its sharp, hooked beak open slightly, as if ready to strike. Its plumage is a striking combination of brown, grey, and black, with distinctive streaks and bars. The Merlin is a falconiform bird, belonging to the order Sauropsida, and is a member of the Falconidae family. Audubon's "Birds of America" is a testament to the artist's unwavering dedication to documenting the natural world. This Merlin plate is a prime example of his mastery of the art of bird illustration, capturing the essence of this remarkable bird in all its beauty and power.
