About the Item
This print, titled 'Le Tyran à huppe noire', represents the Eastern Kingbird (Tyrannus tyrannus). The bird is depicted perched on a branch, rendered in a profile view that showcases its prominent crest and striking plumage. The artwork captures the Eastern Kingbird's characteristic bold black head, white throat, and grayish body, with attention to the fine details of its feathers and the distinctive white tip on the tail.
Below the image, the text 'Le Tyran à huppe noire', 'Tyrannus atricapillus pl. 48' provides the French common name, the presumed Latin name (although the correct scientific name for the Eastern Kingbird is Tyrannus tyrannus), and the plate number of the illustration within the collection. Notations include 'Pretre pinx', 'Langlois sculp.', and 'Bouquet', indicating the original artist, engraver, and the artisan who colored the print by hand, respectively.
The condition of the print suggests a well-preserved piece with typical signs of aging such as foxing, which is evident in the spots and blemishes on the paper, and a general yellowing indicative of the print's age. Despite these marks, the artwork itself maintains its visual appeal, with the colors remaining rich and the drawing precise. The print is part of 'Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux de l'Amerique Septentrionale' by Louis Jean Pierre Vieillot, published circa 1807, an influential work in ornithology that contributed to a shift towards observing birds in their natural environment rather than as mere specimens.
