EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate print showcases the enchanting beauty of the Tufted Coquettes, Lophornis ornatus, also known as Tufted-necked Hummingbirds or Trochilus ornatus. The male Tufted Coquette, depicted on the left, is adorned with iridescent green and purple plumage, a long, curved bill, and distinctive tufts of feathers on the nape of its neck. The female, on the right, is more subtly colored with a greenish-brown back and rufous underparts, and a shorter, straight bill. John Latham, a renowned English naturalist and ornithologist, meticulously drew and engraved this image as part of his seminal work, A General History of Birds, published in Winchester in 1822. Latham's dedication to accuracy and detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the Tufted Coquettes' plumage, beaks, and other distinguishing features. The Tufted Coquettes are native to Central and South America, primarily inhabiting the forests of Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. These small, vibrant hummingbirds are known for their agility and nectar-feeding habits, using their long, extendable tongues to reach the nectar deep within flowers. This stunning print not only serves as a testament to Latham's artistic and scientific prowess but also offers a glimpse into the natural world of these captivating birds. The intricate details and rich colors bring the Tufted Coquettes to life, inviting us to appreciate their beauty and the wonder of the natural world.
