Sora (Porzana Carolina, Linn.).

Ridgway, John L.




Publisher Information:
Forest, Fish and Game Commision, New York: c. 1902.

A Fine original chromolithograph printed on heavy coated stock. Quarto (9 x 12.5 Inches). Published as part of the unbound portfolio of prints. This is one of the finest of the late 19th to early 20th century American chromolithographs: a color-printed lithograph in which a separate stone was used for the application of each color, thus requiring meticulous registration to recreate the subtle tones of blended color . This fine chromolithograph was produced from the original watercolors by John Livzey Ridgway (1859-1947), a prominent American scientific illustrator and draftsman for the USGS Reports from 1884- to 1920.
