EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty of the Eider Duck, Fuligula Mollissima, as depicted by John J. Audubon in his renowned work "The Birds of America". Published between 1827 and 1838, this color lithograph showcases Audubon's meticulous attention to detail and his passion for ornithology. In this image, we see a male and female Eider Duck gracefully perched on a nest made from feathers. The male stands tall with its vibrant plumage shining under the sunlight, while the female sits protectively over her precious eggs. Their webbed feet are visible as they rest upon a bed of soft feathers. Audubon's hand-colored engraving brings these birds to life, capturing their intricate features and natural essence. Each stroke of color adds depth and dimension to their delicate forms. This historical piece is part of the Historica Graphica Collection, preserving an important chapter in natural history exploration. It serves as a testament to Audubon's dedication to documenting North American bird species with scientific accuracy and artistic flair. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, let us appreciate both its aesthetic value and its contribution to our understanding of wildlife during the 19th century. This print reminds us of nature's wonders and invites us into Audubon's world where art meets science in perfect harmony.
