EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Kestrel - fal co tinnun culus, c1910" takes us back to the early 20th century when British wildlife was being celebrated through art. Created by the talented artist George James Rankin, this piece is part of a larger publication called "Britain's Birds and Their Nests" by A. Landsborough Thomson. In this side view portrait, we witness the majestic kestrel perched on a tree branch amidst lush greenery. Its brown plumage blends harmoniously with its natural surroundings, showcasing nature's impeccable design. The kestrel's profile reveals its sharp beak and piercing eyes that exude an air of determination and focus. The image also captures the essence of bird life in Britain during that era. With wings slightly spread and bent forwards in a graceful pose, this bird of prey appears ready for action or perhaps tending to its nest hidden within the foliage nearby. George James Rankin skillfully employs watercolors to bring out every intricate detail of this magnificent creature while maintaining a sense of tranquility in his work. This print serves as a testament to both Rankin's artistic prowess and Sir Arthur Landsborough Thomson's dedication to ornithology. As we admire this timeless masterpiece from 1910, let us appreciate how it encapsulates not only the beauty but also the importance of preserving our natural heritage for generations to come.
