The Story Behind the Print

This fine art print reproduces Plate 92 from Arthur Cleveland Bent's Life Histories of North American Gulls and Terns, published by the United States National Museum in 1921. The color plate shows the eggs of the Sooty and Bridled Terns, each numbered as on the original plate. The plate was lithographed in color by A. Hoen & Co. of Baltimore.

The portrait composition suits a study, library, coastal home or collected gallery wall. The sixteen egg plates in this series share one warm paper tone and matching borders, so several can hang together.

Premium Archival Quality

Printed to order with archival inks on heavyweight 325gsm museum-grade matte paper. The complete plate, including its heading, figure numbers and species legend, is centered on a continuous warm paper background.

Available Presentations

Choose Print Only or a professionally framed version in Satin Black, Slimwood Silver or Slimwood Gold. Available artwork sizes are 8 × 12, 10 × 15 and 12 × 18 inches. Print Only is shipped rolled in a protective tube; frame not included. Framed options are built to order in solid wood with no mat and arrive ready to hang. Sizes refer to the paper artwork; the frame adds to the outside dimensions, about 1.25 inches for Satin Black and about 1.75 inches for Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold.

A Thoughtful Gift

He was candid, honest, and thorough. The item is stunning! It is the focal point in the living room,”
