PORTRAITS OF THE GAME AND WILD ANIMALS OF SOUTHERN AFRICA
Book Description and Condition
Harris's sketches for 'Portraits' were reproduced with remarkable delicacy and interpretative skill by lithographer Frank Howard, printed in black, and then hand painted by talented colourists combined to make 'Portraits of the Game and Wild Animals of Southern Africa' not only a work of historical and zoological importance, but one with an
elegance, a distinction, all its own. This is a book that both delights the eye and intrigues the mind. 432 x 327mm., pp. 8 (preliminaries), 175, colour plates throughout. Hard cover in pictorial dust jacket. Contents, no inscriptions, no foxing; boards, medium rubbed on corners, small 'bumped' area top board - binding very firm; dust jacket, light staining/foxing top front corner, some scattered 'foxing' on the reverse, small tear near spine on back, few 'surface' marks.
