Otus Bengalensis (Bengal eagle owl) (1832)
John Gould, a distinguished 19th-century British ornithologist and artist, is known for his striking illustrations of birds. In 1832, he created "Otus Bengalensis" (Bengal Eagle-Owl), which captures the fascinating world of owls. Gould's work is characterized by its attention to detail and vivid depiction, which is both scientifically accurate and artistically appealing. His illustrations not only served science, but also the general public to appreciate the beauty and diversity of bird life.
Fun fact: John Gould was not only a talented illustrator, but also a shrewd businessman. He used his travels to Australia and other exotic locations to discover and document new species of birds. A lesser known fact is that his wife, Elizabeth Gould, played a significant role in his work. She was a gifted artist and helped create many of his early works before tragically passing away at just 37 years of age. Her contributions were long underestimated, but today her influence on Gould's success is increasingly recognized.

Print quality & material
We believe that art has the power to inspire the mind, tell stories and transform spaces.
That's why we put our hearts into every step of the printing process to ensure that every work we produce meets the highest artistic standards.
printing process
Our fine art giclée printers use 12 different ink tanks and produce museum-quality art prints. Thanks to specially pigmented inks, significantly more color nuances can be displayed than with conventional printing processes and other providers.
Print medium
We use extra-heavy (400g/m2) premium canvas made from 100% cotton. The high grammage and texture of the canvas ensures a particularly high-quality and almost three-dimensional appearance.
Environmentally friendly
We only use original and high-quality pigment ink which contains real pigment particles. This is UV-resistant, solvent-free, vegan and environmentally friendly.
UV & moisture resistant
Thanks to the UV resistance of our pigment inks, the prints do not fade or discolor and retain their color brilliance for up to 100 years.
