EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Merlin, Falco columbarius 1, and peregrine falcon with duck, Falco peregrinus 2" by John James Audubon showcases the beauty and power of these magnificent birds. In this chromolithograph from the late 19th century, we see a merlin falcon and a peregrine falcon alongside their prey—a duck. The image perfectly captures the intensity of the moment as these skilled predators prepare to strike. The merlin falcon, also known as pigeon hawk, stands tall with its sharp gaze fixed on its target. Meanwhile, the larger peregrine falcon or duck hawk displays its great-footed prowess in anticipation of capturing its meal. Audubon's ornithological illustration skillfully portrays each bird's unique features and vibrant plumage through color lithography. The intricate details bring these creatures to life on paper, showcasing Audubon's dedication to accurately representing North American wildlife. This print is part of Benjamin Harry Warren's Report on the Birds of Pennsylvania published in 1890. It serves as a testament to Audubon's significant contribution to ornithology and his commitment to preserving America's natural heritage. As we admire this artwork today, it reminds us of our shared responsibility in protecting these remarkable animals and their habitats for future generations.
