South American Macaw by Gould | 1940s Vintage Lithograph | Tropical Bird Wall Art

Add vibrant tropical beauty to your space with the South American Macaw — an authentic vintage offset lithograph from John and Elizabeth Gould’s prized tropical bird collection, printed circa 1940.

Known for their brilliant plumage and striking presence, macaws are iconic symbols of the South American rainforest. The Goulds’ illustration captures this species in vivid detail — a testament to their dedication to scientific accuracy and artistic elegance.

Printed by Goes Lithographing Company on heavy fine art paper, this original lithograph measures about 12 × 9 inches — a colorful highlight for vintage bird lovers and tropical decor alike.
