EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the American Crow, Corvus Americanus, as depicted in John J. Audubon's renowned book "The Birds of America". Published between 1827 and 1838, this colour lithograph from 1845 is a testament to Audubon's meticulous attention to detail and passion for ornithology. In this illustration, we see a male American Crow perched on a branch made of black walnut wood. The rich colours of the lithograph bring out the crow's glossy black feathers against the warm tones of the walnut branch. Its sharp beak and intelligent eyes are captured with remarkable precision, highlighting Audubon's ability to capture not only the physical attributes but also the essence of each bird he studied. The inclusion of a nest within this composition adds an element of natural history to this piece. It serves as a reminder that these birds are not just subjects for study but integral parts of their ecosystem. Through his illustrations, Audubon sought to educate and inspire others about wildlife conservation long before it became widely recognized. This historic photograph print is part of the Historica Graphica Collection and stands as a testament to both Audubon's artistic talent and his contributions to zoological research. Whether displayed in a nature lover's home or an educational institution, it serves as a beautiful reminder of our connection with nature and our responsibility towards its preservation.
