About the Item
Set of 2 original antique bird prints titled 'A Hen Pidgeon from the Ninkcombar Islands near Pegu in India' and 'A Cock Pidgeon from the Ninkcombar Islands near Pegu in India'.

Eleazar 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.
