A History of British Birds (Series II)

by The Reverend Francis Orpen Morris

1880

 

A series of hand coloured antique woodblocks by The Reverend Francis Orpen Morris, from "A History Of British Birds”. Morris was an Irish parson and naturalist, devoted to protecting birds from the plume trade leading to his founding of the Plumage League in 1885. He forged an extremely productive partnership with woodblock printer Benjamin Fawcett that lasted over 50 years and had a significant impact on Victorian ornithology.
