Description: Original antique print of the egg of 12 various terns including the stunning blue whiskered tern egg and the arctic terns from Seebohm. This collection of eggs includes soft browns and creams as well as the center egg in blues. The antique bird egg print is beautifully detailed & richly colored with shadowing which makes the images seem three dimensional. Margins are quite clean with few scattered fox marks, none affecting the images, slight age toning on edges. Antique print condition is true to this scanned image, we do not re-touch our scans.
Watermark, Redhouse Collection Prints, is on the digital image only, not on the actual print.
