John Gould Print Gallery
John Gould, known as "The Bird Man", lived from 1804-1881. He lived in England but he travelled to many then remote areas of the world to obtain bird specimens for his various editions of hand painted bird lithographs that he became famous for. John Gould employed other distinguished artists to help with the hand coloring throughout his career, which included his wife, Elizabeth Gould, William Hart, Edward Lear, H.C. Richter and Joseph Wolf.

The prints in this gallery come from four different projects, which include: The Monograph of the Trochilidae (Hummingbirds), created between 1849 and 1887 in six volumes, of which approximately only 250 copies were produced; the Birds of Asia, created between 1850 and 1883, of which approximately 235 copies were produced; The Birds of Great Britain, created between 1862 and 1873, of which approximately 750 copies were produced; and The Birds of New Guinea, created between 1875 and 1888, of which approximately 250 copies were produced. After Gould's death in 1881 Richard Bowdler Sharp, a close associate of Gould's, took over and finished his work.

The paper size for these prints is approximately 21 x 14 inches. All are authentic and some include the original text as noted.
