This print is from Edward Donovan’s wonderful Naturalist's Repository, published in 1823. These are prized for the artistry and composition of each print, and the exotic beauty of the prints with their fine, intense hand coloring. Donovan drew the subjects from his own museum & the collections of such famous scientists as Sir Joseph Banks & Drury. As a wealthy prominent naturalist, Donovan had entree to all the great collections of the time. Prints are accompanied by the relevant original descriptive text if available.
The condition of these prints is very good. All our prints are authentic hand colored antique prints, and the Donovan’s are about 200 years old. These prints are particularly prized for the large and colorful nature of the subjects, and many of Donovan's prints are absolute jewels. THESE PRINTS ARE EXTREMELY RARE.
