Ernst Haeckel's Hummingbird Plate

Ernst Haeckel was a German zoologist who also drew beautifully. He coined the word ecology and described thousands of new species, and between 1899 and 1904 he published Kunstformen der Natur, or Art Forms in Nature, a set of one hundred plates showing the patterns and symmetry of living things.

His hummingbird plate arranges these tiny birds the way a museum drawer might, each one shown in careful detail.

How Art Forms in Nature Shaped Design

Haeckel taught at the University of Jena and was one of Charles Darwin's leading champions in Germany. His plates of jellyfish, sea creatures and microscopic radiolarians reached far beyond science. Art Nouveau designers borrowed from them, and the monumental gate of the 1900 Paris World's Fair was inspired by his radiolarians.

Trochilidae, the title of this design, is the scientific name of the hummingbird family.

Trochilidae Diamond Painting: Bringing Haeckel's Birds to Life

Hummingbird feathers are iridescent, and diamond facets catch light in a similar way, so the birds come out with real shimmer. Fill the background first, then work bird by bird, starting with the darker feathers and ending with the bright throats.

The tails and long bills are thin, so place those drills carefully with a fine tip. A little wax on the pen helps with single drills, and pressing each finished row gently with a roller keeps the feathers lying flat.

A Gift for Birders and Science Lovers

This plate suits a study, kitchen nook or classroom, and it pleases anyone who keeps a feeder by the window. Browse our full range of diamond painting kits for more nature and animal designs.
