EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant beauty of a Long-tailed paradise whydah, also known as Vidua paradisaea, male. The intricate details and stunning colors of this handcoloured copperplate engraving truly bring this magnificent bird to life. The illustration was created by William Hayes in 1794 for his book "Portraits of Rare and Curious Birds from the Menagery of Osterly Park" in London. Hayes, a renowned artist and ornithologist, expertly captured the essence of this Red-breasted long-tailed finch, scientifically known as Emberiza paradisaea. The Long-tailed paradise whydah is depicted with its long tail feathers elegantly trailing behind it, showcasing its gracefulness and charm. Its red breast adds a pop of color against its predominantly black plumage. Every feather seems meticulously rendered on this copperplate engraving. This artwork transports us back to the 18th century when naturalists like Hayes were fascinated by rare birds from around the world. It serves as a testament to both scientific curiosity and artistic skill during that era. With its rich history and remarkable aesthetic appeal, this print is sure to captivate any viewer's attention. Whether you are an avid bird enthusiast or simply appreciate fine art, this piece will undoubtedly add elegance and intrigue to any space it graces.
