Very Rare and Decorative French Wood Panel , Finely Painted and Decorated in a Flora and Fauna Subject - unusual details of Rare Birds in Brilliant Colours Suggesting a South American Scene Possible Van Diemens Land or New Holland ? . The paintwork style suggests a cross over of French and English artistry typical of the travelling artists during the exploratory years of the early 19th and late 18th centuries. By no means an amateur artist - showing art skills and a serious academic interest in the newly discovered tropical lands .
