Audubon's Cuvier's Kinglet Bird on Pink Calico Playing Cards

Audubon's Cuvier's Kinglet Bird on Pink Calico Playing Cards

This vintage reproduction of John James Audubon’s Plate 55 from Birds of America showcases the enigmatic Cuvier’s Kinglet, also known as Cuvier’s Regulus, perched delicately on a mountain laurel branch adorned with pink blossoms. One of Audubon’s “mystery birds,” the true identity of this species remains unknown to this day. Despite Audubon’s remarkable ability to accurately document over 400 bird species, Cuvier’s Kinglet has never been rediscovered since Audubon (supposedly) collected a specimen in Pennsylvania in 1812, naming it after the famed French zoologist Georges Cuvier. Audubon described the bird as having a dark forehead with striped markings similar to the Golden-crowned Kinglet, but with a striking red crown. Its resemblance to both the Ruby-crowned and Golden-crowned Kinglets has left ornithologists debating whether it was a unique species, a hybrid, or perhaps a bird that has since gone extinct. The mountain laurel, native to the eastern United States, adds to the charm of this mysterious bird, with its vibrant pink spring blossoms symbolising renewal and beauty. This fascinating artwork captures the intrigue of Audubon’s ornithological achievements and the mysteries of nature, making it a captivating “one of a kind” piece for bird enthusiasts, art collectors, and those drawn to the stories behind Audubon’s iconic illustrations.
