The Story Behind the Print

This vintage Sooty Tern print reproduces plate 235 from John James Audubon's nineteenth-century Birds of America, presenting a striking seabird in flight for a study, library or natural-history gallery wall.

A single sooty tern sweeps across softly painted clouds with long pointed wings, a deeply forked tail and an open bill edged in red. Its pale brow and underside stand out against the dark feathers. The original number, plate designation, species caption and engraving credits remain visible in the composition.

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

Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with clear acrylic glazing, dry-mounted artwork, a kraft paper dust cover, and hanging wire. Each piece arrives ready to hang. No mat. 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.
