Jackdaw-Passerine-Crow Gronvold Chromolithograph
This is a really nice chromolithograph of the Jackdaw by Henrik Gronvold, from Birds of Great Britain and Ireland by Arthur Butler, c1890.
The Jackdaw (Corvus monedula), sometimes known as the Eurasian Jackdaw, European Jackdaw, Western Jackdaw, or formerly simply the daw, is a dark-plumaged passerine bird in the crow family.
Henrik Grönvold (1858-1940) was a Danish naturalist and artist. From an early age, he developed an interest in natural history and spent his time drawing the birds and animals around him. He studied drawing in Copenhagen, Denmark. In 1892, Grönvold left for America by way of England. It was in London that he landed a job preparing bird skeletons for the Natural History Museum. There he developed skill as a taxidermist and established his reputation as an artist. In 1895, Gronvold joined an expedition to the Savage islands, returning later to continue as an artist at the Musem. By the end of the century, Grönvold’s work was well represented in scientific literature. He also produced plates of bird eggs, which were quite unusual and rarely found in early bird books.
