Cassowary antique Bird Print by Goldsmith 1816

Title: The Cafsowary.

This antique Cassowary bird print from 1816 is a must-have for any collector of natural history prints.
It was taken from the second edition of Oliver Goldsmith's popular book "History of the Earth and Animated Nature," which went through over twenty editions during the Victorian era.
The print features a detailed and beautifully hand-colored depiction of the Cassowary, a large flightless bird native to Australia and New Guinea.
The print is in good antiquarian condition, with some light browning to the paper and included passepartout.
This is a rare and collectible piece (Martinet del. schulp. Jn. Taylor) that would make a beautiful addition to any home or office.

Passepartout: 10.5 x 8.1 inches. 27 x 21 cm.
Image app.: 5 x 3.1 inches. 12.5 x 8 cm.
