Look carefully at everything to be satisfied as this is too costly to ship back and forth, just for a fun look.
The frame we used is purposely vintage as we prefer to use vintage frames with authentic antique prints, so that the frame used has the same aged look as the print, which goes better as a whole.
All is solid

There are 4 small unobtrusive fox marks left of the buffalo, to be expected from a page this old.

Swiss-born Karl Joseph Brodtmann's works include natural history lithographs from Naturhistorische Bilder Gallerie aus dem Thierreiche which this came from.
Brodtmann is considered one of the most accomplished lithographers of the early 19th century
Karl Joseph/Ioseph Brodtmann (3 February 1787 – 14 May 1862) was an accomplished Swiss artist and lithographer, as well as a printmaker, publisher and bookseller who worked in Zurich and Schaffhausen.
Brodtmann was born in Überlingen, Switzerland. He produced his lithographs in the post-Linnaean "'Age of Enlightenment". Natural history specimens were depicted in hand-colored sets for the use of biologists and the aristocracy, the latter being not only great patrons of the arts and sciences, but including many who were actively interested in fauna and flora. The artists respected scientific accuracy and often displayed a remarkable sense of aesthetics. Brodtmann died, aged 75, in Basel.
