Framed vintage ornithological print of "Franklin’s Barbet," now known as the Golden-throated Barbet (Psilopogon franklinii), after renowned British natural-history illustrator John Gould. The composition depicts two vividly colored barbets perched on a bare branch, characteristic of Gould’s highly detailed bird illustrations. The print includes the printer’s credit “Walter, Imp.” and is presented with double matting, a narrow red inner border, and a silver-finished faux-bamboo wooden frame. Dimensions: 26 1/2 x 19 1/2
