James E. De Kay (1)
Birds of New York


These prints are hand-colored lithographs taken from James Ellsworth DeKay's classic Zoology of New York ,or the New-York Fauna, Part II, Birds, published in Albany, NY, by Carrol and Cook, 1844 . The artist is John William Hill, and the lithography is by George Endicott of New York. The plates are printed on sturdy, white paper, which is in exceptionally fine condition, with fresh, clean surfaces and very little evidence of wear.  Although the plates are 157 years old, they look and feel as if they were just printed.  It would be hard to find a better set of De Kay's birds.

Size: 9 x 11.25 inches
