Is there a bird which evokes far away travels like the makestic Albatross? Have you been to the South Seas to see it in person?
Beautiful antique Albatross bird print from a 1916 natural history book entitled "Wildlife of the world" by Richard Lydekker. This vintage print is in very good condition, with a slight yellowing of the paper at the edges. It shows 2 Albatrosses on the water and a couple of flying ones, together with the silhouette of a lovely tall ship in the distance.
The book was illustrated by A. Weczerzick and W. Kuhnert, this particular print being from Walter Kuhnert. The printing techniques of the time gives them a very soft aspect.
Frame it and gift it to your favorite South Seas birds lover!
