Description

Drawing depicting: Anthus cervinus

Note

Uncolored litho proof, without title; MS cutlines at foot of sheet: ". . ichter [page trimmed] del. et lith. / Anthus cervinus, Pall."; this proof, with lettering added, was published in Birds of Asia, as above. On the proof, 2 of the 3 birds are marked for removal; the plate published in Birds of Great Britian, credited to Gould and Hart, retains two birds, one reversed, and is reworked in portrait rather than landscape mode, with a changed background; note by Gould "Reverse and make this an upright plate."
