EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving showcases the vibrant plumage of the Stripe-breasted Starthroat, Heliomaster squamosus, also known as the White-striped Hummingbird. The image is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Ornithology, Volume 2, published in Edinburgh by W.H. Lizars in 1833. The Stripe-breasted Starthroat is a small, iridescent hummingbird native to Central and South America. The male is easily identified by its distinctive white stripes that run from the base of its bill, down its throat, and across its chest. The female, on the other hand, has a more subdued appearance, with a green back and rump, and a white belly with a few scattered black spots. The Stripe-breasted Starthroat is a common sight in the humid forests and gardens of its range, where it feeds on nectar from a variety of flowers using its long, curved beak. This hummingbird is also known to visit artificial feeders, making it a popular species among birdwatchers and gardeners. The intricate detail and lifelike quality of this engraving are a testament to the skill of the engraver and the high-quality printing techniques of the time. The use of hand-coloring adds an additional layer of beauty and realism to the image, making it a valuable addition to any natural history collection. Overall, this Stripe-breasted Starthroat engraving is not only an accurate representation of this fascinating hummingbird species but also a stunning work of art that showcases the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
