EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant beauty of a Green woodpecker, scientifically known as Picus viridis or Greens woodpecker. The image is part of an extraordinary collection of drawings commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II around 1600. This particular piece belongs to the third album, which focuses on birds and is one of twelve albums featuring animals, birds, and plants from that era. The artwork itself is a testament to the meticulous skill and attention to detail possessed by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt, the artist behind this masterpiece. Using various mediums such as watercolor paint, deck paint, pencil, and brushwork on paper measuring approximately 187 mm in height and 305 mm in width. The Green woodpecker takes center stage with its striking emerald plumage contrasting against a backdrop meticulously crafted by de Boodt. The title "Pic verd" adorns the top right corner while an explanation in Dutch, Latin, and French accompanies it. This print not only captures the essence of this magnificent bird but also transports us back in time to appreciate nature's wonders through artistry. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago people marveled at the beauty found within our natural world.
