Book & Documentary on the Curious Victorian Taxidermy of Walter Potter

Walter Potter's Curious World of Taxidermy

The upcoming book Walter Potter’s Curious World of Taxidermy by Dr. Pat Morris and Joanna Ebenstein takes a look at the whimsical anthropomorphic taxidermy of Victorian era English taxidermist Walter Potter. The book will be accompanied by a documentary, “Where Kittens Wed and Birds Lament,” directed by Ronni Thomas. The book will be released on September 19, 2013 and can be pre-ordered on Amazon. We previously wrote about a 1965 film about Potter’s taxidermy and his (now defunct) museum.
