Specimen: lithographic plate of Botaurus stellaris (Eurasian bittern).

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fantastic, large-sized lithographic plate by Von Wright brothers with a Eurasian bittern / great bittern (Botaurus stellaris) - beautifully portrayed with a nice bit of habitat. A bird with a truly fantastic sound, that you will not forget after having heard it!

The antique prints of Von Wright brothers are fantastic artworks and, in my eyes, some of the greatest antique bird illustrations ever made. The larger size, antique colour, and condition of the paper make this print perfect for framing.

The condition is really good, considering it was printed between 1917-1929 (in Stockholm). Please look carefully at the photos to see the condition of the plate.

From my private collection. It will be shipped in safe packaging, created for prints (in the same way as I prefer to receive my own purchases / prints)
