[Taxidermy] John Cooper And Sons

Descripción

[London, John Cooper & Sons?], 1928. Taxidermy gilt-bordered bow-fronted case (45 x 25 x13 cm) in naturalistic setting. = With label 'Perch caught in the Ouse by John Catchpole, August 28th 1928, 1lb 7oz'. Taxidermy items with such detailed information are quite uncommon. The style of this case strongly reminds of those made by the London firm of J. Cooper and Sons, which was active from the mid-19th century until the 1950's. However, the Ouse is a river in Yorkshire, which may indicate that perhaps a northern taxidermist produced this excellent example of a mounted fish in its natural surroundings. The perch, Perca fluviatilis Linnaeus [German: Barsch; French: perche; Dutch: baars] is an angler's favourite throughout Europe. Some slight wear to the wood panelling, slight abrasion of the gilt border, otherwise in very good condition. Note: we do not ship this item outside the EU.
