Antique Bird Print of a White Stork

About the Item

Antique bird print titled 'The Green leg'd Horseman or Female Totano'. Original antique print of a white stork. This print originates from 'A Natural History of Birds' by Eleazar Albin, published circa 1731. Albin was a German professional painter who settled in England in 1707, where he married and raised a family, changing his name from Weiss to Albin. He illustrated works on insects and spiders, earning his living by making watercolors of the collections of wealthy patrons, including Sir Hans Sloane, whose collection founded the British Museum. His work on birds was done late in his life & was the first large English work on ornithology, hand-colored by Albin and his daughter Elizabeth & published initially in London from 1731-1738.
