EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 63 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," features a stunning and intricately detailed illustration of the White-eyed Vireo (Vireo griseus). This exquisite print, part of the original double elephant folio published between 1827 and 130, showcases the White-eyed Vireo perched gracefully on a branch. The bird's long, slender bill and distinctive white eyes are prominently displayed, making it easily identifiable. The background of the illustration is adorned with various flowers and plants, adding a touch of natural beauty to the composition. Among these are several species of Meliaceae, a family of angiosperms, or flowering plants, commonly known as the Chinaberry trees. The vibrant colors of the flowers contrast beautifully with the muted tones of the bird and the branches, drawing the viewer's attention to the intricate details of each element. The White-eyed Vireo is a passerine bird, belonging to the order Passeriformes, and the family Vireonidae. It is an eudicot, a type of angiospermae, or flowering plant, and is classified as a magnoliophyta, a division of the plant kingdom that includes all flowering plants. The illustration is an impressive example of the hand-coloured aquatint technique, which was used to create the rich textures and subtle shading seen throughout the print. The White-eyed Vireo is a common bird found in North and Central America, and is known for its melodic song. This illustration not only serves as a beautiful work of art, but also provides valuable insight into the natural history of this fascinating species.
