EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from 1855 showcases the exquisite beauty of three hummingbird species. Created by Bauerrichter, a talented artist from England, this handcoloured lithograph is part of Adam White's Popular History of Birds collection. The print features the Ecuadorian hillstar, Oreotrochilus chimborazo 1, with its vibrant plumage and delicate features. Alongside it is the green-bearded helmetcrest, Oxypogon guerinii 2, displaying its unique green beard and striking crown-like crest. Lastly, we have the white-necked jacobin, Florisuga mellivora 3, known for its elegant white collar and graceful presence. Each bird in this lithograph has been meticulously depicted with intricate details that highlight their individual characteristics. The colors are vividly brought to life through careful hand-colouring techniques employed by Bauerrichter. This artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also contributes to our understanding of these magnificent creatures within the realm of natural sciences and zoology. It exemplifies how art can be used as a tool to document and appreciate nature's wonders. Preserved in private collections around the world, this particular print captures a moment frozen in time during the mid-19th century when scientific exploration was at its peak. Its historical significance lies not only in showcasing these stunning hummingbird species but also in reflecting upon early scientific methods utilized during that era. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows us to admire and appreciate such remarkable pieces of art that continue to inspire awe even after centuries have passed since their creation.
