Technique: lithograph, later hand colouring before sale.
Description: Beautiful original lithograph, hand-colouring completed by Gould's wife, Elizabeth. This digital image does not do justice to this fine original antique print.
Note: Discolouration at the bottom of this photograph is a shadow from photography and does not exist in reality. This actual print is beautiful and unblemished
Provenance:
Original hand-coloured lithograph by William Hart for 'The Bird Man' John Gould's Birds of New Guinea and the adjacent Papuan Islands, including many species recently discovered in Australia, published in London between 1875 and 1888.
