Color Of Exotic Birds 19th Century Engravings

Eleven birds flew away from the natural history book of exotic birds, after having been drawn and engraved by JL Emile Pauquet in the first half of the 19th century, and after being enhanced with watercolor, took refuge in seven identical frames, sealed since their escape. Some traces of stitching due to the wood-based paper of the time, the colors retain all their seductive appeal. Two Great Blackbirds, a Hyacinth Macaw Parrot, a Paradise Woodpecker, a Yellow-crested Kakatoes Parrot share its frame with another with a white-crested one. A bird of paradise, two large Breves (Azurin and Grenadin) later, I arrive at the last frame with two large Rollers. The seven delicate mahogany frames can be combined as you wish.
