HAS FAMOUS AUCTION HOUSE GOT THE DETAILS RIGHT ON THIS GERMAN STUDY OF A 'BARRED' OWL?

                                                    

Somehow something seems not quite right about this early-19th Century painting currently being sold by Christies in an online sale. It is described in the catalogue as "a barred owl perching on a branch". The sale began on July 15 and ends on August 4. The pre-sale estimate is that the painting - the work of a German artist - will fetch between £1,500 and £2,000.
