An English ornithologist and bird artist who identified the species now nicknamed "Darwin's Finches," he published more than 40 volumes of natural history illustration during his lifetime, containing over 3,000 plates. This example belongs to Birds of Australia (1840-1848), a seven-volume set containing 600 plates and identifying 328 species new to science. His extensive research on that continent led to his recognition as the father of bird study in Australia. Fine Art Quality The Ibis’s giclée process uses archival pigment inks on 100% cotton rag paper to achieve crisp detail and rich, lasting color. Unlike posters, they will not yellow with time, but will maintain their original quality for as long as you own them. Happiness Guarantee All of The Ibis's prints come with a 100% happiness guarantee. If you are disappointed in your purchase for any reason, you are welcome to return it for a full refund.
