Morris devoted his life to art and painting. He lived out his fascination and enthusiasm for nature through his paintings, from which it is easy to see that he was particularly interested in birds. Accordingly, Beverly R. Morris was one of the most famous artists of ornithological illustrations. He also shared the interest in nature and especially birds with his brother Francis Orpen Morris, who was a naturalist, especially for the protection of birds.
Morris's hand-colored paintings of various species of birds - mainly different types of ducks and chickens - are not only today very popular at various art auctions, but already during his lifetime reflected the artistic epoch of the 19th century. Already in the epoch of Romanticism, landscape paintings were in focus, especially in England. With the onset of realism, the paintings only became more detailed and naturalistic. With the emergence of a new art technique, the so-called lithography, opened for all artists with a preference of bird illustration new and wonderful opportunities to perfect their paintings - so also for Beverly R. Morris.
Using lithography, Morris was given the opportunity to refine his hand-colored bird illustrations with even softer lines. In addition, lithography offers a much wider palette of light and dark hues, allowing, for example, the birds' plumage to be depicted with even greater realism. In lithography, the motif is drawn on a smooth stone with ink or chalk, depending on the artist's preference, and the remaining part of the stone is treated with rubber and acid. Thanks to the rubber, the stone retains the lines of the design as it is water repellent when printed. This technique was so popular because it allowed the artist to draw their own illustration directly on the stone provided, without having to take any other intermediate steps to preserve the drawing before printing. As the technique progressed, the illustration would be colored by hand, making the final result look like an original watercolor. It was through lithography that ornithological illustration reached its zenith, as the unique beauty of these hand colorings can hardly be surpassed. That is why the paintings of Beverly R. Morris are still very popular at art auctions and embellish many galleries or even private homes. In addition, the Merheim of high-quality, ornithological books of the 19th century in folio format was created with just these hand-colored, lithographic plates, as well as the illustration in his own magazine "The Naturalist" by Beverly R. Morris, which was later taken over by his brother.
