EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Plum-throated Cotinga, Cotinga maynana. The illustration, drawn and engraved by the renowned naturalist artist, Richard Polydore Nodder, was originally published in George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's The Naturalist's Miscellany in London, 1800. The Plum-throated Cotinga is a vibrant and elusive bird species native to Central and South America. With its iridescent plumage, distinctive plum-colored throat, and long, curved beak, this bird is a true marvel of the natural world. The intricate details of its feathers and the lifelike quality of its representation in this engraving are a testament to Nodder's exceptional artistic skills. The Plum-throated Cotinga was an object of fascination for naturalists and collectors during the 18th and 19th centuries, as the exotic bird was rarely seen outside of its native habitats. This illustration would have been highly prized for its accuracy and beauty, as it allowed those who could not travel to the New World to experience the wonder of this remarkable creature. The Plum-throated Cotinga continues to be a popular subject of study in the fields of zoology and natural history, as scientists strive to learn more about its behavior, habitat, and conservation status. This exquisite engraving serves as a reminder of the rich natural history heritage that has been preserved through the work of dedicated artists and naturalists like Richard Polydore Nodder.
