The Throstle Thrush, also known as the Song Thrush, is depicted in Bewick's characteristic style, which combines intricate detail with a keen observation of the natural world.

Bewick's illustrations are notable for their lifelike accuracy and artistic quality, which helped to popularize bird study and contributed to the burgeoning interest in natural history during the 18th and 19th centuries. Each species entry in 'History of British Birds' includes an engraving accompanied by a description of the bird's habits, appearance, and habitat, as well as anecdotes and folklore associated with it. The Throstle Thrush illustration is no exception, showcasing Bewick's skill in rendering the bird's features and his effort to provide a comprehensive account of its life in the British countryside.

Thomas Bewick's work is credited with revolutionizing the field of wood engraving, allowing for the mass production of high-quality images.
