About the Item

The print features the White-collared Flycatcher, scientifically named Muscicapa collaris. This bird is illustrated perched on a slender branch, which is adorned with a handful of delicate, green leaves. The artist, Magnus von Wright, has captured the flycatcher’s distinct plumage with a high degree of detail and realism. The White-collared Flycatcher is depicted with its namesake white collar prominently displayed, contrasting sharply against its sleek black plumage. The stark black and white coloration is expertly shaded to convey the bird's contours and feather textures. The bird's eye is especially lifelike, with a small catchlight reflecting its alertness and vitality. Magnus von Wright’s signature, positioned below the bird, attributes the work to his skilled hand. The background is purposefully understated—a plain, muted tone—to ensure that the flycatcher remains the focal point of the illustration. The term "Halsbandsflugsnappare ♂" accompanies the scientific name, which translates from Swedish to "Collared Flycatcher male," indicating the sex of the bird depicted. This species is known for its striking appearance and its insect-catching prowess, both of which would have been of interest to von Wright as a naturalist and artist. This print, being part of 'Svenska Foglar Efter Naturen Och Pa Stenritade', represents von Wright’s dedication to the accurate and aesthetic portrayal of Scandinavian birdlife, a commitment evident in the fine craftsmanship of this illustration.
