John James Audubon Reproductions – Watercolor Studies for Birds of America White Pelican, 1831 Fine Art Reproduction Image Size: 15 x 10 inches This reproduction is a new, individually printed and proofed, superior quality, giclee* process, fine art print. It is printed on 100% cotton rag acid-free, heavyweight fine art paper with a luxurious textured watercolor paper finish and archival pigment inks to ensure permanence. Created for collectors, it IS NOT A POSTER or mass produced print on low quality, inexpensive paper. John James Audubon’s masterwork, The Birds of America, was originally released between 1827 and 1835. The work consisted of 435 hand-colored, life-size prints, made from engraved plates of his watercolors. The watercolors of American birds that John Audubon painted in the opening decades of the 19th century were never intended to be finished works of art in their own right. Rather they were the preparatory studies with the final goal of producing and publishing prints from engravings based on the watercolors. Often painted ‘on the spot’ in the field, Audubon’s watercolors depicted for the first time all known species of North American birds in their natural habitat. The images were then transferred to copperplates utilized by Robert Havell, his London engraver for the monumental series of prints Birds of America. The vast majority of the original watercolors are still in existence today. Audubon’s widow, Lucy Bakewell Audubon, sold them in 1863 to the New-York Historical Society. Over 400 etchings in the completed Birds of America were produced from his 433 original watercolors. In 1820 (around the age of 35) Audubon declared his intention to paint every bird in North America. In his bird art, he mainly abandoned oil paint, the medium of serious artists of the day, in favor of watercolors and pastel crayons (and occasionally pencil, charcoal, chalk, gouache, and pen and ink). As early as 1807 he developed a method of using wires and threads to hold dead birds in life-like poses while he drew them. In 1823 Audubon went to Philadelphia and New York looking for financial support in the form of subscribers to enable him to publish his artwork, but found support lacking. As a result, in 1826 he set sail for the United Kingdom with 250 of his original illustrations, looking for the financial support of subscribers and the technical abilities of engravers and printers. After exhibiting his drawings in Liverpool and Manchester he journeyed to Edinburgh, where he met the accomplished engraver William H. Lizars. Lizars engraved up to ten of the first plates and in 1827 Audubon engaged the noted London animal engraver Robert Havell Jr. and his father (Robert) who saw the project through to its completion in 1838. Original Medium: Watercolors, pastel, black ink, gouache and graphite with glazes on paper. Reproduction Medium: Fine Art Paper, Archival Pigment Inks Image Size: 15 x 10 inches (printed on larger 17 x 13 inch paper to allow ample borders for matting and framing) About Our Prints The brilliant colors and fine line detail of our reproductions offer the best quality for price performance available online or in shops today.
