Birds : The Art of Ornithology (Pocket edition) Hardback

Hardback

Description

Jonathan Elphick tells the remarkable story of the development of bird art through the centuries.

The book features early, skilfully executed but often fanciful images of birds, scientific illustrations produced during the ages of exploration, and modern approaches capturing the essence of these freest of all creatures.

This reduced size edition is chunky yet portable, and retains the lavish finish of the original gift book.

The outstanding selection of images from the unrivalled collection at the Natural History Museum includes exquisitely crafted works from some of the most famous bird artists ever published including Audubon, Lear,MacGillivray and Gould.
