Victorian Stag Taxidermy Scottish Highlands Monarch of the Glenn

19th century
Description

A Victorian taxidermy study of a Scottish highland deer

This stag is dated to circa 1860

And would have been originally prepared and treated in an Edinburgh studio

This unique type of item does not often come on to the market often

Edward Landseer famously painted the oil painting titled The Monarch of the Glen and this reminds us of that painting

Taxidermy is the art and craft of preserving animal specimens, typically by tanning their skins and mounting them to recreate their natural form for display or study

A taxidermist, or taxidermist, is the person who practices this art

It would make a great addition to a hunting lodge or a business club

Offered in great shape and we can ship to anywhere in the world including US

Please get in touch for a shipping quote or if you have any questions

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Victorian deer taxidermy typically features full-body mounts or shoulder mounts preserved with naturalistic poses, often mounted on wooden plinths or shields during the nineteenth century.

Traditional Victorian taxidermy utilised natural animal hide, preserved bone structures, glass replacement eyes, wood shavings or tow stuffing, and timber display bases.

Authentic pieces frequently display historic stuffing methods, subtle age-related wear to the pelt, period-appropriate glass eyes, and hand-carved timber bases or mounting plaques.

Full mount taxidermy serves as a focal statement piece in grand foyers, traditional libraries, or spacious living areas styled with classic timber furniture and warm ambient lighting.

Keep taxidermy away from direct sunlight, moisture, and heat sources, dusting gently with a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth to prevent hair shedding and degradation.
