EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the beauty of a Richardson's ground squirrel, also known as a flickertail. The artwork was created by the renowned naturalist and artist John James Audubon for his iconic publication "Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America" in 1849. The image captures the essence of this wild American creature with remarkable detail and precision. The squirrel's fur is depicted in exquisite texture, showcasing its mid-brown coloration that blends harmoniously with its surroundings. Its large expressive eyes seem to convey curiosity and alertness, while its delicate paws suggest agility and dexterity. The flickertail's most distinctive feature is undoubtedly its tail, which stands out prominently in the lithograph. This long appendage earned it the nickname "flickertail" due to its habit of rapidly jerking or flicking it when alarmed or excited. Audubon's dedication to accurately representing nature shines through in this piece, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the physical attributes but also gain insight into the behavior and habitat of these fascinating creatures. As we admire this lithograph print from Granger Art on Demand, we are reminded of Audubon's immense contribution to zoology and his tireless efforts to document North America's rich biodiversity. Through his artistry, he continues to inspire us today with his passion for wildlife preservation and appreciation for our natural world
