EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "AUDUBON: SHREW" showcases the exquisite artistry of John James Audubon and his deep appreciation for the natural world. The print features a Southern short-tailed, or Carolina, shrew (Blarina carolinensis), meticulously captured in stunning detail. Audubon's masterful brushstrokes bring this tiny insectivore to life, highlighting its unique characteristics. With its elongated snout and short tail, the shrew is perfectly adapted for survival in the Southeastern wetlands of North America. It scurries across a mid-plain ground covered with lush foliage and clover patches while a serene pond glistens nearby. The artist's attention to texture and shading creates an almost three-dimensional effect on this lithograph from 1851. Every whisker seems to quiver as if caught in motion, inviting viewers into the shrew's secretive world. Through his Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America series, Audubon aimed not only to document but also to celebrate the diverse wildlife found on this continent. This particular piece offers us a glimpse into one small corner of nature that often goes unnoticed. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable print by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection as an homage to Audubon's legacy and dedication to preserving our natural heritage through art. Let it serve as a reminder that even creatures as seemingly insignificant as shrews play vital roles within our ecosystems and deserve our
