EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mesmerizing beauty of an Ocellated turkey, scientifically known as Meleagris ocellata. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this magnificent bird are brought to life through the handcoloured copperplate engraving by William Lizars. The Ocellated turkey is a native species found in Honduras and is often referred to as the "Honduras turkey". Its unique appearance sets it apart from its more well-known relative, the Wild turkey. With its iridescent plumage adorned with striking blue-green eyespots or "ocelli" this bird truly stands out in the avian world. This illustration was featured in Sir William Jardine's renowned work, "The Natural History of Gallinaceous Birds" which forms part of his esteemed collection called "The Naturalists Library: Ornithology". Published in Edinburgh in 1834, this masterpiece showcases Jardine's dedication to documenting and celebrating various species of birds. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder, we can now appreciate and admire this extraordinary artwork. This print serves as a testament to both nature's wonders and human artistic skill. Whether you're an avid ornithologist or simply captivated by natural beauty, this enchanting image will surely leave you awe-inspired.
