Background:
This print is from the "Birds of Western Africa" volume of The Naturalist
Library. Comprised of 40 volumes, The Library was published by Sir
William Jardine in the 1830s and 1840s. The volumes featured over 1300 beautiful
illustrations including mammals, birds, fish and insects. An interesting aspect of
each print is that only the subject was hand-colored leaving the background illustration
as the original black engraving. |
