Dr. Martin Wilckens; "Wall Panels, Natural History of Farm Pets"




This is another of the rare and exceptional original first edition prints of Dr. Martin Wilckens' "Naturgeschichte der Hausthiere" (Natural History of Farm Pets).  They were published in Germany by Theodor Fischer in 1878.  We will be offering another of this type, with a more anatomical nature and vibrant colors.  While published in 1878, these particular prints feel somehow very modern, especially in the white shadowbox frames.   33" l., 33" w.  German, c. 1878  SOLD
