About the Item

A beautifully assembled set of eight original bird etchings by British-born illustrator Lilian Marguerite Medland (1880-1955), each meticulously framed and matted. Created in the early 20th century, these works feature photogravure plates of bird species from Medland’s renowned series, “The Birds of the British Islands,” first published 1906-11. Their subtle monochromatic rendering, fine detail, and naturalistic presentation reflect Medland’s skill as an ornithological artist. Each print is presented in a neutral contemporary frame, with a sight-to-mat dimension of approximately 8″ × 10″ and outer frame size approx 11″ × 14″. Together, the set offers a unified decorative grouping ideal for a study, library, gallery wall or refined living space. Vintage condition overall with minor age-related toning at sheet margins and light frame wear; prints remain crisp and display-ready.
