This framed natural history illustration depicts a Barbary pigeon, identified in Latin and Italian inscriptions as Columba Barbarica and Colombo de Barberia. The print features detailed rendering of the bird's plumage and physical characteristics, set against an aged background. Dedicated to a professor of surgery in Palermo, the print carries an academic and scientific charm.
The artwork is presented in a simple wooden frame with a worn, distressed yellow painted finish that highlights its vintage character. The paper displays natural ageing, with notable discolouration and staining that adds to its authentic antique appearance. It comes complete with a top hanging loop on the reverse side. Ideal for bringing a classic natural history aesthetic to a study, hallway or library space.
