$25.00
Availability: In stock
A beautifully illustrated volume showcasing the luminous bird paintings of Athos Menaboni, with text by Sara Menaboni. Known for his refined detail and graceful compositions, Menaboni captures each species with a naturalist’s precision and an artist’s eye for movement, as seen in the striking cardinal featured on the dust jacket. This first edition presents his work in large, full-page plates that feel both intimate and grand.
Bound in a warm red cloth hardcover, the book remains clean and well-kept inside, with crisp pages that highlight the rich color reproduction of the artwork. The original dust jacket shows visible tear and edge wear, along with light staining consistent with age, but it still protects the volume and retains its visual charm. A lovely addition for collectors of bird art, natural history illustration, or mid-century nature books.
