Bird Prints on A Gallery Wall


This wall of bird prints is stunning. 
I love the wide wooden frames and the further framing of the entire wall in natural wood. 
The <<<<>>>> border might be handpainted on fabric, it's hard to tell. It is on the ceiling too around a wide figural border wallpaper. This could be a bedroom. Photo found here.

I have a bunch of these bottle gourds I grew one year and they were so much fun. I need to make bird houses from them his year.

1878 Bird Print: My Hawk & Blue Jays

A color lithograph with my Cooper's Hawk and Blue Jays.

STUDER'S BIRDS OF NORTH AMERICA
Leather Binding with embossed gilt cover and a detached spine.

Title Page dated 1878
This book was rather a poor man's Audubon's Birds of America because the birds were not hand-colored but printed in color thanks to the invention of chromolithography.
