The Story Behind the Print
This vintage Tropic Bird print reproduces plate 262 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 white tropic birds cross a painted coastal scene. One flies over blue-gray clouds and sea with its long tail trailing across the sheet; the other stands on a rock above the shore. The original No. 53, Plate CCLXII, Tropic Bird caption, Latin name and engraved credits remain with the artwork.
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.
