Vintage Tellon Spanish Tiles with John Gould transferware

The tiles have a white background—the first depicts two hummingbirds perched on a branch with green leaves and red flowers. The top of their head is covered with red feathers. Their wings are blue-green with a yellow patch on the breast. The second tile depicts two different birds, the first sitting higher on a branch has red feathers on its head & throat, with a yellow body and brown wings. The second bird has brown feathers from the head to the tail, with a yellow body. It is perched on a tree branch.

The transfer artwork is a copy of ornithologist John Gould's (1804-1881) life's work, who produced 50 oversize volumes between 1830 and 1881. His beautiful drawings assured his popularity among a wealthy clientele, while the reliable scientific information in his tomes ensured broader commercial success. Now available in the public domain, his work is still used commercially.
