This elegant and detailed print is an original steel engraving, an illustration from a 19th century book on Natural History. It is in very good condition and has been professionally matted in acid-free mat and backer board. Makes a great gift for the birder or antique collector in your life! Many more prints from this series of birds are available in my Ebay store!

Please note, due to the nature of these original materials, there may be some slight blemishes on the images. These are a mark of authenticity and I have no control over this quality. The colour of the mat you receive may or may not match that shown in the image, but will be sympathetic to the picture. Outside dimensions are 8 x 10", ready to fit in a frame; image dimensions vary within this size. Please contact for any specific questions.
