This artwork, a page from a larger ornithological volume, is a detailed list of birds created by Dutch artist Joseph van Huerne between 1809 and 1814. Written in ink, the meticulously formatted list includes the Dutch and Latin names of various bird species, alongside their habitats. This work exemplifies the meticulous documentation of natural history prevalent in the early 19th century and is valuable for both ornithologists and historians. It was created during a period of significant scientific progress, which led to a growing interest in the study of natural phenomena, and it serves as a testament to van Huerne's careful observation and dedication to capturing the intricacies of the natural world.
