"Falco Cyaneus" is a striking illustration created by Robert II Havell, an esteemed engraver and artist of the 19th century. This artwork is part of the renowned series "The Birds of America," which was a monumental project spearheaded by the famous naturalist and painter John James Audubon. Havell played a crucial role in bringing Audubon's vision to life, translating his detailed watercolors into the exquisite hand-colored engravings that make up the series.

The illustration "Falco Cyaneus" depicts the Northern Harrier, a bird of prey known for its distinctive owl-like face and agile flight. Havell's meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of color and shading capture the bird's graceful form and the subtle nuances of its plumage. The Northern Harrier is shown in a dynamic pose, often in mid-flight or perched, highlighting its predatory nature and the elegance of its movements.

Havell's collaboration with Audubon was instrumental in the success of "The Birds of America," which is celebrated not only for its scientific accuracy but also for its artistic brilliance. The series was published between 1827 and 1838 and is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever produced. Havell's engravings, including "Falco Cyaneus," were printed on large sheets of paper, known as the "double elephant folio," allowing for life-sized representations of the birds.

"Falco Cyaneus" exemplifies the synergy between Audubon's keen observational skills and Havell's technical prowess. The illustration remains a testament to the rich biodiversity of North America and the enduring legacy of both Audubon and Havell in the fields of art and natural history. Today, "The Birds of America" and its individual plates, such as "Falco Cyaneus," are highly prized by collectors and institutions, reflecting their historical and artistic significance.
