EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, published in 1896, showcases the exquisite beauty of two distinct species of shrikes - the Woodchat shrike and the Red-backed shrike. The print captures these avian wonders with remarkable precision and vibrant colors, offering a glimpse into the natural world as it was over a century ago. In the foreground, we are introduced to the striking Woodchat shrike (Lanius senator), its elegant form perched upon a branch. With its distinctive black mask contrasting against its white plumage and rusty-red underparts, this bird exudes an air of regality. Its sharp beak hints at its predatory nature as it scans its surroundings for potential prey. Adjacent to it lies another marvel - the Red-backed shrike (Lanius collurio). In this chromolithograph, we witness both genders of this species; on one side stands a resplendent male with his reddish-brown back and gray head adorned by a black eye stripe. On the other side rests his female counterpart who boasts more subdued hues but shares her mate's elegance nonetheless. The artist behind this masterpiece is ZU_09 whose attention to detail brings these birds to life on paper. This print serves not only as an aesthetic delight but also as an educational tool that allows us to appreciate and study these magnificent creatures from generations past. As we gaze upon this chromolithograph today, we are reminded of our responsibility to preserve and protect our natural heritage so that future generations may continue
