Fish stingray sea life biology science 1852 Fullarton old color prints

Untitled

(Fish / stingrays / sea life)

2 SHEETS- Pair of two separate prints.

Issued London, 1852.

Engraved by Fullarton.

Charming and wonderfully detailed mid-19th century engraved fish prints with full original hand color.

Hand coloring is artistic, the overall visual effect is excellent. Beautiful age patina to the prints.

Minor light toning and small scattered age spotting as typical for prints of this vintage, perhaps small minor paper flaws, but to our eyes and for most people, an entirely acceptable and nice looking example.

Each sheet measures c. 6 1/4" x 10"

Printed areas measure c. 5 1/2" x 8 3/4"
