Frigate Pelican Audubon Bird Print - Plate 271John James Audubon

This vintage Frigate Pelican print reproduces plate 271 from John James Audubon's nineteenth-century Birds of America, prepared as historical wall art for a study, library or natural-history gallery wall.

The dark, blue-green-edged frigatebird plunges headfirst across the sheet, its spread wings, forked tail, hooked bill and two pink feet creating a dramatic airborne portrait. The original No. 55, Plate CCLXXI, Frigate Pelican caption, Latin name, male-adult note 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.
