These stunning Lithographs by Charles Robert Bree (1811 - 1886) a medical practitioner and zoologist are beautiful, genuine antique illustrations from the 1860s which we have had reprinted.
His passion for birds drove him to become a renowned ornithologist. The illustrations of birds in his works are superb. The reason is Bree employed an excellent painter and draughtsman - Benjamin Fawcett.
A renowned perfectionist, Fawcett was one of the best at colour printing from woodblocks. He mastered every step: painting birds; engraving wooden printing blocks; mixing and matching colours; and hand painting the engraved prints with with rich colours.
Each lithograph print comes in a beautiful antique black and gold wooden frame with 2mm Clear UV100 Acrylic Glazing.
