Pigeon Prints by Pretre

Original color printing!

Prêtre belongs to the famed French artists in early 19th century who masterfully used color printing for flowers, plants, birds to illustrate the important botanical and zoological books of that time. Using a separate printing for each color they used, and lacking the technical precision necessary to "come down" on the exact line of the preceding printings, it was an endevour making the hair of publishers stand on end, because of costly time and waste of misused paper involved. But once a print was done, the outcome was superb as seen in these samples here!
