About this Item

20 7/8" x 14 3/8" sheet size. Handcolored lithograph from "The Birds of Great Britain", five elephant folio sized volumes containing some 367 hand colored lithographs published over the course of 11 years, from 1862-1873. The lithographs are primarily from drawings made by John Gould though H.C. Richter is credited on this particular image also with the lithography handled by Mr. Hart as usual. A striking piece with unusually fine hand coloring in very good condition with the usual frazzling at the disbound edge and a very small spot here and there. Lovely, unfaded hand coloring.
