About the Item
Antique print titled ‘Sterna, Nigra'. This print depicts the black tern (Dutch: zwarte stern). The black tern (Chlidonias niger) is a small tern generally found in or near inland water in Europe and North America. As its name suggests, it has predominantly dark plumage.

Sepp. This is the most important and first study in the Netherlands of ornithology at that time. The birds are depicted as they are in life, said to be depicted close to life sized and in their environment.
