Created by Johann Michael Seligmann, a distinguished German engraver and illustrator, this piece is part of his *Sammlung verschiedener ausländischer und seltener Vögel* (Collection of Various Foreign and Rare Birds). Seligmann’s work brought the illustrations of pioneering naturalists like George Edwards to German audiences, preserving both scientific accuracy and artistic beauty. This plate, numbered "Tab. L," presents the duck in vivid colors, with intricate details in its feathers, bill, and feet that demonstrate Seligmann’s skillful hand-coloring technique. See less
