A striking early 20th-century taxidermy heron and a moorhen, c.1920. The birds are beautifully posed within their original glass-fronted case, the scene is arranged with painted sky, reeds, and textured groundwork, creating a wonderfully atmospheric display. The birds retain good plumage condition and naturalistic posture. A characterful decorative piece with great presence and charm.
