Rowley, Ornithological Miscellany

George Dawson Rowley, Ornithological Miscellany.

This rare and unique work was published in 14 parts comprising three volumes in quarto (1875--1878).

104 of the plates were colored, and Keulemans, among other artists, contributed no fewer than 89 of them.  About 27 of these were issued as chromolithographs and represented a divergence on the part of the artist from formal scientific illustration.  These chromolithographs are not included in this exhibit.

 

Images available:  55, including two duplicate images of prints.
