A charming print from a series of natural history prints by the popular 19th-century lithographer, Louis Prang. After leaving his native Germany in the 1840s, Prang established himself in Boston, going on to become one of the more skillful and diverse of American illustrators and printmakers. He is well known for his fine art chromolithographs and greeting cards, as well as his book illustrations.
