Antique engraving of a Tucano Mangiapepe, by Saverio Manetti Circa 1776 A fine hand colored engraving of a Tuscan Magpie by the Italian artist Saverio Manetti. Manetti drew his work predominantly from real specimens. The work was one of the largest ornithology undertakings to that point in time. Dimensions: 25 inches high x 22 inches wide x 1 1/4 inches deep. (frame); (63.5cm high x 55.88cm). 18 x 14 in.
