We are delighted to offer a selection of highly finished chromolithographed prints from Coloured Figures of the Eggs of British Birds by Henry Seebohm, published in 1896. These prints contain some of the finest groupings of bird’s eggs found in natural history illustration, all in intricate detail.

Henry Seebohm was born in Bradford, Yorkshire in 1832. He began his studies of biology in the botanical realm, making a collection of British Ferns. However, his true passion was ornithology, and after much success in steel manufacturing he was soon traveling abroad, studying various bird species & collecting their eggs.

The plates are in excellent condition on a strong, heavy paper that is still quite white, with no foxing. Each print measures approximately 6 1/4 inches wide by 10 inches long. The relevant descriptive text is included whenever possible. The photos are very accurate, so please review carefully. All our prints are authentic antique prints and guaranteed to be from the date stated. These prints are over a century old.
