The Story Behind the Print

Ocean quahog — American Marine Conchology, Plate 30

This fine art print reproduces Plate 30 from George W. Tryon's American Marine Conchology, published in 1873. The hand-colored composition depicts Cyprina islandica among the marine mollusks named in the original book. The plate's historical lettering and figure numbers are retained. One or more depicted species have documented Cape Cod relevance.

Printed to order on archival matte fine art paper. Available in 8 × 12 and 10 × 15 inches. The selected size is the complete artwork. Choose Print Only or a ready-to-hang Slimwood Silver, Slimwood Gold, or Satin Black frame. Framed pieces are supplied without a mat.

Colors may vary slightly with screen settings. Historical species names on the plate are preserved as printed.

About the Frame

Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.

“I love this map! It came in perfect condition and it is beautiful! We had to get a custom frame which can get pricey, especially for the size we chose 48 × 36 but it looks great and filled our large wall perfectly! Great find!”
“This is truly a high quality, authentic print of Texas, we LOVE it! We went with the big 48 x 36 print and it looks amazing. Justin was great to work with and very quick to answer my questions. Shipping was fast too. All around, we are more than happy with our purchase!”
“Love it!! I don’t know how they did it, but they manage to make the map look old and like something from a museum. The frame is gorgeous. Shipped fast and was very carefully packaged so it arrived in perfect condition. Bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it! Thanks!!”
