EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of John James Audubon, a renowned American ornithologist and painter. Titled "Esquimax Curlew, 1834" this watercolor on paper masterpiece measures 34.3x53.3 cm and is housed in the prestigious Shelburne Museum in Vermont, USA. In this stunning composition, Audubon skillfully captures two Esquimax Curlews in their natural habitat. One bird stands gracefully while gazing downwards, its slender neck curving elegantly towards the ground. The other curlew lies peacefully nearby, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. Audubon's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he meticulously portrays each feather with remarkable precision and lifelike accuracy. Through his artistry, he not only celebrates the beauty of these magnificent birds but also highlights their unique characteristics. The acquisition of this extraordinary piece by The Old Print Shop adds to its historical significance and artistic value. As we admire this print today, we are transported back to a time when Audubon's groundbreaking work revolutionized our understanding of avian species. This print serves as a testament to Audubon's enduring legacy as an artist and naturalist. It reminds us of the importance of appreciating nature's wonders and preserving them for future generations to enjoy.
