John Gould Tropical Bird Prints in Custom Wooden Frames, 7 Sold Each
About the Item
This collection of framed John Gould tropical bird prints from his limited edition of 1000, showcases the remarkable talent of the 19th-century British ornithologist. We have the privilege of presenting 7 of these prints, each priced and sold individually.
Encased in custom wooden frames and protected under glass, these prints emanate both historical significance and unparalleled beauty. John Gould (1804-1881), celebrated not only for his entrepreneurial prowess but also for his contributions to ornithology, is best known for his folio volumes of exquisite color-plate illustrations.
Despite not completing any of the illustrations himself, his ability to orchestrate a team of dedicated artists, lithographers, and colorists allowed for the production of nearly 3,000 unique images, many of which depicted previously unknown species. These framed prints serve as a testament to Gould's legacy, embodying the fusion of art and science.
Displayed in a living room, study, or hallway, they will not only enrich your home with a touch of Victorian elegance but also invite conversations about history, art, and the natural world. Incorporating these prints into your décor will add a layer of sophistication and historical depth, making them an invaluable addition to any collection.

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.
