This attractive collection of 8 hand-colored bird prints and 1 map is from The Ibis, a magazine of general ornithology authored by Philip & William Lutley Sclater. The work was published in London by John van Voorst (and successors) circa 1859 to 1900.

The Ibis was the official periodical of the British Ornithologist’s Union. The Ibis was a long running periodical which began in 1859 and continued until 2007. Its earlier lithographs were after noted artists including J. G. Keulemans, J. Wolf, G. E. Lodge, H. Gronvold and others.

The Ibis is noted as the best and most influential ornithology periodical published in the English language. Casey Wood described the periodical as “The premier publication of its kind in the English language [and] the most practical and best-edited ornithological periodical in any language.”
