"Horned Screamer" is a chromolithograph from the "Birds of the Tropics" series created by Allen & Ginter in 1889 for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands. It depicts a Horned Screamer, a tropical bird native to South America. The image is highly detailed and features a vibrant color palette. The bird is depicted in profile, standing on a grassy ground with a light blue sky in the background. This series of cards was popular in the late 19th century, and these lithographs are considered early examples of natural history illustration.
