An authentic full-bleed 1870s albumen print photograph. A Victorian naturalist wearing a tweed vest and spectacles stands next to a full-body taxidermy dodo bird on a wooden workshop table, gently touching its beak. The dodo bird is meticulously accurate to history: a plump, heavy, pear-shaped body, tiny stumpy vestigial wings, squat thick legs, and a massive bulbous gray beak with a blunt downward hook. In the background, a dusty museum workshop with shelves of bones and glass jars. Sepia-toned monochrome, heavy vintage paper grain, natural fading, edge discoloration, and no border or frame See more
