American Pied-billed Audubon Bird Print - Plate 248John James Audubon

This vintage American Pied-billed print reproduces plate 248 from John James Audubon's nineteenth-century Birds of America, prepared as historical wall art for a study, library or natural-history gallery wall.

Two pied-billed grebes move through blue-gray marsh water beneath a dense bank of reeds and broad leaves. The nearer bird lifts its wing and pale bill toward its companion; fine feather lines, ripples and the old engraved scene remain visible. The original No. 50, Plate CCXLVIII, American Pied-bill Dobchick caption, Latin name and both credits remain on the sheet.

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.
