Antique Print of a Famous Australian Native Bird Named The Lyrebird, 1853
About the Item
Antique bird print titled 'Ménure Lyre'. Original print of a lyrebird. This print originates from 'Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux' by M. Emm. le Maout. Published 1853.
A lyrebird is either of two species of ground-dwelling Australian birds that compose the genus Menura, and the family Menuridae. They are most notable for their superb ability to mimic natural and artificial sounds from their environment, and the striking beauty of the male bird's huge tail when it is fanned out in courtship display. Lyrebirds have unique plumes of neutral-coloured tailfeathers and are among Australia's best-known native birds.
Artists and Engravers: Jean-Emmanuel-Marie Le Maout (29 December 1799, Guingamp – 23 June 1877, Paris) was a French naturalist.
Condition: Good, general age-related toning. Minor wear and foxing, please study image carefully.
Date: 1853
