The Story Behind the Print
This vintage Night Heron print reproduces plate 236 from John James Audubon's nineteenth-century Birds of America, restored as historical wall art for studies, libraries and natural-history gallery walls.
An adult heron bends toward a spotted frog beside the water while a brown, streaked young bird stands among dense marsh plants. Red eyes, pale wings and long white crest feathers contrast with deep green foliage, slender grasses and white flowers. The engraved caption identifies the adult and young, preserving the plate's historical Night Heron or Qua bird title.
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.
