About this sheet

Fallow Deer – Antique European Wildlife Chromolithograph, 1894

DESCRIPTION
This refined chromolithograph depicts a group of fallow deer in a wooded setting, centered around a stag with full antlers. The scene conveys both elegance and natural behavior, rendered with sensitivity to light and seasonal atmosphere.

From The Royal Natural History (London, 1894), the plate reflects the Victorian appreciation for native European fauna alongside more exotic species. The composition is attributed to Wilhelm Kuhnert, whose woodland scenes are particularly admired.

The harmonious palette of greens and browns makes this a versatile decorative print suited to classic and contemporary interiors alike.
