“Initially, I wasn't sure what size I needed. The seller was extremely helpful and offered to send mock-up images of the image in the frame so I could physically visualize the piece! Overall, it is a beautiful accent piece for our entryway table! Frame/image came packed well with not a scratch on it! Would recommend this seller 100%.”

The Story Behind the Print
This vintage Great Blue Heron print reproduces John James Audubon's illustration from Birds of America, plate 211. Restored as historical wall art for studies, libraries, and natural history collections, this nineteenth-century image captures Audubon's mastery of avian anatomy and habitat detail.
A great blue heron bends its long neck toward the water with wings partly lifted. Slate-blue feathers, fine pale plumes, rust-colored accents, and surrounding marsh grasses give the pose both elegance and tension.
Archive Print Co. restores each illustration for clarity while preserving the character of the original. Each reproduction is printed as a giclée art print on heavyweight 325gsm archival matte paper with archival inks.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece; the print will always be richer in person.
About the Frame

Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.
The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.

“My daughter loves the map in her room. She looks at is a lot . She points to all the places she wants to travel to. The packaging was great. It was very safe with all the bubble wrap! The frame was what I picked out. It arrived when it was suppose to. Thank you Liz”
“Love my hometown Santa Monica map and I can’t wait to get it framed! Would have done it through Justin but due to Covid-19 he didn’t know when that would be. So I’ll just get it done myself. Can’t wait to hang it-know exactly where it will go! Justin was kind and answered my questions in a very timely manner. Thank you again!”
