Set of eight unframed giclee reproductions of shore or water birds. Here we have a Great Blue Heron, Purple Heron, a Imperial Spoonbill, Night Heron a Bittern, some type of stork and 2 other herons. All prints have the bird names in French at the bottom if you would like to do further study. The original prints we reproduced these from were hand colored copperplate engraving and our quality is so good they look like the real thing.
Image History: The giclee prints we make are from Francois Martinet's work with Buffon Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux. The work was published between 1765 and 1780 by Edme Louis Daubenton in France. Each plate features a delicate yellow border, which many believe led to the development of French matting.
Martinet was a prominent ornithological artist of the 1700s. He work closely with Count Georges-Louis Leclerc du Buffon on Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux. The work is considered one of the most influential bird books of all time.
Print: The giclee prints are made in USA and we only use the very best acid free cotton rag paper and archival inks to insure the prints looks its very best. The ink has a light fastness of over 160 years so it promises not to fade in our lifetime.
Size of each print is 12 inches wide and 16 inches tall. This size is perfect for a 12x16 standard size frame if you do not use a mat. If you use a mat they will fit into a 16x20 inch frame with a 3 inch mat on top and sides with a 4 inch on the bottom.
This is a set of 8 prints that are each 12x16 inches. less
