The Story Behind the Print
This vintage Red Phalarope print reproduces plate 255 from John James Audubon's nineteenth-century Birds of America, restored as historical wall art for studies, libraries and nature-inspired gallery walls.
Three phalaropes appear along a quiet shoreline. One bird flies across the upper scene with patterned brown plumage and black-and-white wings; a second, in blue-gray and white, lifts its wings near the water. At the right, a rust-colored bird with a black-and-white head and yellow bill stands on a rock. The contrasting plumage, pale coastal landscape, specimen numbers and original engraved lettering give the plate its distinctive natural-history character.
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.
