| W.
T. Greene The
xylographic plates, or wood-engravings,
below
are cut from the first and
only edition of William
Thomas Greene's classic
three-volume
Parrots in Captivity, published
by George Bell, London, 1882-87.
The parrots were colored by Benjamin
Fawcett and based on drawings by
Alexander F. Lydon. W. T. Greene: "In
almost every instance, the plates have
breen drawn and colored from life, and
are scarcely to be exceeded in any
ornithoglogical work, at least
of a popular character, with which we
are acquainted." Size: 9.75 x 6.5 inches |
