EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Great quail from Madagascar, a remarkable species that surpasses the size of its European counterpart. The image is signed by two talented individuals, P. Sonnerat pinx and J. J. Avril sculp, who have beautifully captured the essence of this exotic bird. Displayed on Plate 98, just before page 171 in Volume 2 of Sonnerat's work, this print is a testament to Pierre M. Sonnerat's passion for documenting the natural world. His intricate brushstrokes bring out every detail of the Great quail's plumage and features with astonishing precision. J. J. Avril's skilled engraving technique further enhances this masterpiece, adding depth and texture to Sonnerat's original artwork. Together, they have created an enduring representation of one of Madagascar's most fascinating avian inhabitants. Dating back to 1782, this print stands as a testament to both artistry and scientific exploration during that era. It serves as a window into our past and reminds us of the importance of preserving biodiversity across our planet. Sepia Times / UIG has expertly reproduced this historical piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), allowing us to appreciate its beauty today while honoring the legacy left behind by these pioneering artists.
