Description

Considered one of the great masters of bird art of the nineteenth century, P. J. Selby drew most of the birds in this series and did most of the etching himself.  W. H. Lizars (who also served as Audubon’s first printer) did the printing and supervised the coloring.  This series was first issued by subscription in nineteen parts from 1824-1834 on J Whatman paper.  It was issued again in the 1840s and in the 1860s by Henry Bohn, also on J Whatman paper.
