    Der ornithologisch interessierte Schlossherr zu Liebegg im bernischen Aargau, Jakob Graviseth, liess um die Mitte des 17. Jahrhunderts eine Sammlung von Vogelbildern anlegen. Mitglieder der Familie und eine Reihe von auswärtigen Künstlern schufen im Laufe der Jahre fast 200 Vogelbilder. In Farbe porträtiert wurden die damals heimischen Vogelarten von Yverdon bis an den Bodensee. Im 18. Jahrhundert vereinigte man die losen Bilder zu einem Album. Das Vogelbuch der Familie Graviseth befindet sich heute in der Burgerbibliothek Bern. Das reich illustrierte Werk ist nicht nur für die Geschichte der wild lebenden Vögel und die bernische Jagd- und Marktgeschichte, sondern wegen seiner Zusammenhänge mit der Stillebenmalerei des in Bern tätigen Strassburger Malers Albrecht Kauw auch für die Kunstgeschichte von Interesse.

    Die mehrfach ausgezeichnete Autorin (u.a. "Liebesbande", BA 5/93) und begabte Malerin hat sich in diesem, bibliophil gestalteten Buch solcher Vögel angenommen, die entweder durch Verfolgung ausgerottet wurden (etwa Wandertaube, Riesenalk) oder durch Umweltveränderungen starken Gefährdungen ausgesetzt sind (so Wachtelkönig, Ziegenmelker u.a.). Kenntnis- und detailreich erzählt sie von Lebensweise und Bedrohungen, zitiert ältere Autoren und übersetzt längere Abhandlungen. Bestechend schöne Farbbilder schmücken den Text: berühmte Vogelmaler wie Audubon, Lear, Keulemans sind mit Werken vertreten, die Künstlerin Anita Albus schließt sich mit naturnahen Darstellungen ebenbürtig an. Ein Glossar und Literaturangaben fehlen nicht in diesem rundum gelungenen Buch - der (angemessen) hohe Preis lässt es in den Bibliotheken so selten sein, wie die Gefiederten des Inhalts. (3)

    Dieses Buch untersucht die deutsche Tradition der Vogelmalerei von Albrecht Dürer bis ins frühe 20. Jahrhundert. Es führt durch den reichen Bildervorrat der Vergangenheit, diskutiert exemplarische Werke und erklärt die wechselnden Einstellungen der Ornithologen durch 250 Jahre ihrer begeisterten Tätigkeit. Unter den Einzeluntersuchungen: der Berliner Schulrektor Johann Leonhard Frisch; Johann Matthias Bechstein aus Dreissigackern, der "Vater der deutschen Ornithologie", der den Übergang vom Sammeln zur Feldornithologie sicherte; Johann Friedrich Naumann aus Sachsen-Anhalt, der zum Meister gewordene malerische und wissenschaftliche Autodidakt; der nach England ausgewanderte Josef Wolf, der für eine ganze Generation von Vogelmalern in Europa Vorbild war; und die Anfänge der Vogelfotografie um 1900

    "Sarah Stone (1760–1844) achieved commercial success as an artist at a time when such achievement was usually denied to women. Like many ladies who painted during this era, Miss Stone produced exquisite watercolours. However, she was almost unique in that she enjoyed considerable commercial success; her paintings were actively sought after by connoisseurs and collectors alike. In an age when the efforts of women were often disregarded or even dismissed, she stood out as a woman who mattered. In this way she might be compared to her slightly later contemporary Mary Anning, who contributed so greatly to the science of palaeontology. Like the activities of Miss Anning, Sarah Stone’s watercolours became of enormous historical and scientific value. What was it about her that stood out from the rest? Firstly, she was highly skilled and produced beautiful images of birds, mammals, fish, insects, shells, minerals and ethnological objects when such curiosities were being brought back for the first time from far corners of the world. In many cases the images she produced are the only records that remain of the treasures arriving in Britain from highly celebrated exploratory voyages, most famously those of Captain Cook. So her watercolours form a unique record of discoveries that in many respects changed the world. Secondly, she was remarkably industrious and painted almost every day. She was largely self-taught and began her career at an early age. Although many of her paintings survive, almost all now exist only in museums and galleries from which they will never be released. Only a very few remain in private hands, which is why the emergence of this wonderful collection of 23 watercolours is so surprising. It contains highly detailed paintings of exotic birds that were being seen in Britain for the first time. How did she get access to such rare and valued items? When she was still a young woman, she was commissioned by Sir Ashton Lever, owner of the celebrated Leverian Museum, to paint some of his most interesting objects. She fulfilled her obligations in stunning fashion; just as well, for the entire Leverian collection was dispersed at an auction in 1806, and many of the items were lost forever. The remarkable collection of newly discovered watercolours will, of course, only be temporary; however, a more permanent record will live on in the form of this new publication for years to come."--From the publisher
