Mazell's engraving of Paillou's illustration captures the bald buzzard with meticulous detail, showcasing the bird's features and the naturalistic style characteristic of the period's scientific illustrations. This work not only served as an important source of zoological knowledge but also as an artistic achievement, reflecting the skills and techniques of engraving and illustration of the time.
