A spectacular collection of avian images from London's Natural History Museum, Birds serves as a comprehensive--and visually stunning--survey of ornithological art. From the gorgeously fanciful to the scientifically precise, all of the full-color illustrations reproduced in these pages are accompanied by fascinating text about the birds, as well as information about the art and artist. Birds (just over 11" square), simply wondrous to behold, makes a magnificent gift for artists, art historians, and birders
