About the Item

Lark Among Poppies - Exquisite Giacomelli Ornithological Print, Circa 1891 This captivating print, titled "L'Alouette" (The Lark), is a beautiful example of Hector Giacomelli's mastery in ornithological art. The scene captures a lively lark in mid-flight, hovering above a field of vibrant red poppies and delicate wildflowers. The lark's wings are spread wide, and its beak is open as if in song, evoking a sense of movement and vitality. The contrast between the lively bird and the calm, expansive field in the background creates a harmonious balance that draws the viewer into the tranquility of nature. Hector Giacomelli (1822–1904) was a renowned French watercolorist, engraver, and illustrator, particularly celebrated for his lifelike and detailed paintings of birds. His work is cherished for its meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant portrayal of avian life within natural settings. This print is a Farbdruck (color print), likely produced using chromolithography, a popular printing technique around the turn of the 20th century. This method allowed for the vibrant colors of the poppies and the delicate hues of the lark's feathers to be rendered with remarkable accuracy and depth. Produced around 1900, this print is part of a series by Giacomelli focusing on birds in their natural environments. Measuring approximately 32 by 23.5 cm, the print is framed by wide white borders, which have aged naturally, showing signs of browning and slight staining typical of prints from this period. The print was likely published in France, where Giacomelli spent much of his life and where his work was highly regarded. As with the other prints in this series, "L'Alouette" was likely produced in a limited edition. The exact number of prints is not specified, but it is known that such prints were often made in modest quantities, making them valuable to collectors of vintage ornithological art. The print is in good condition, with some aging evident on the borders. The central image remains vibrant and clear, capturing the essence of Giacomelli's talent in depicting the beauty of birds and their surroundings. This print is a stunning example of Giacomelli's work, perfect for collectors or enthusiasts of vintage nature art. Its vibrant colors, lifelike depiction, and historical significance make it a treasured piece for any art collection.
