About the Item
Original hand-watercoloured lithograph also signed in plate by publisher C. Hallmandel; C. E. Jackson, "Dictionary of Bird artists of the world", Woodbridge, Suffolk 1999, pp. 259-260; M. Lambourne, "The Birds of J. Gould", Milan 1980, from p. 19; I. Mackenzie, "British Prints", Woodbridge, Suffolk 1987, p. 138; c. 537 x 367 mm.
Excellent quality print.
Colours are fresh and bright, a typical feature of well-preserved prints. Wide, intact margins.
In perfect preserved state.
The panel is part of the 'Birds of Europe' series, executed between 1832 and 1837.
The activity of the prestigious English draughtsman John Gould moved and ran throughout the Victorian era with a very rich etching production entirely related to the theme of birds.
Part of the charm of this collection is due to the refined and delicate drawings of plants and trees that enhance the illustrations, while the occasional insert of insects helps to brighten up the scenes.

John Gould
John Gould was an English ornithologist and bird artist. He published several monographs on birds, illustrated by plates that he produced with the assistance of his wife, Elizabeth Gould, and several other artists including Edward Lear, Henry Constantine Richter, Joseph Wolf and William Matthew Hart. Gould has been considered the father of bird study in Australia, and the Gould League in Australia is named after him. His identification of the birds now nicknamed Darwin's finches played a role in the inception of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. Gould's work is referenced in Charles Darwin's book, On the Origin of Species.
