EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the incredible diversity of North American wildlife as captured by renowned artist John Woodhouse Audubon. Titled "AUDUBON: SQUIRREL AND RAT" the image features three distinct species, each beautifully depicted in intricate detail. From left to right, we first encounter the Townsends ground squirrel, also known as Urocitellus townsendii. Its fur appears soft and sleek against a backdrop of lush green grass, while its alert posture suggests a cautious yet curious nature. Next in line is the creeping vole, scientifically named Microtus oregoni. This tiny creature seems to blend seamlessly into its surroundings with its earth-toned fur and delicate features. Its presence adds an element of gracefulness to this natural tableau. Finally, on the far right stands the Texas cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus texianus), showcasing its distinctive long tail and textured coat. With an air of confidence, it completes this trio of animals that exemplify both beauty and resilience within their respective habitats. Originally painted by John James Audubon for his seminal work "Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America" this lithograph from 1854 transports us back in time to witness these creatures up close. The attention to detail and artistic skill evident in this print make it a true testament to Audubon's dedication as a naturalist and painter.
