About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
Framed print of the Platycercus Pennanth (Pennanth's Parakeet or Crimson Rosella) from the books of the renowned British naturalist / ornithologist John Gould (1804-1881).
This image was first included in "The Birds of Australia," published around 1848. In most cases, the images in Gould's publications were drawn and lithographed by his wife Elizabeth Gould, and often also by Henry Constantine Richter.
The work is framed (as part of a series of 6 from various publications by Gould) by the framing firm Gabriël van Thienen in Brussels (a family business currently known as Maison van Thienen). The address label of the framing firm on the back shows the address where they were established under this name between 1917 and 1964. Consequently, this print by Gould most likely originates from the facsimile edition published by The Ariel Press in 1955. The frame and passe-partout show some signs of aging, which are not surprising given their age and (as far as I am concerned) only add to the charm of the piece.
