| Nederlandsche Vogelen | |||
| 'Nederlandsche Vogelen' was the first comprehensive account of the avifauna of Holland. The plates depict all species known in the Netherlands through the time of publication. The plates frequently feature eggs and nests; a few are dedicated exclusively to these subjects. Anker's definitive catalogue of bird books praises the Nozeman publication for depicting the birds 'in their natural surroundings and as far as possible in their natural attitudes.' Another major critic, Sacheverell Sitwell, calls this 'an ornament to the ago of Rococo.' | |||
