This framed print, measuring 19" x 23", features a depiction of the Passenger Pigeon (Ectopistes migratorius), originally from Plate 62 of John James Audubon's monumental The Birds of America. The artwork illustrates two of these now-extinct birds perched on branches, one feeding the other, a common behavior. Audubon (American, 1785-1851) is celebrated for his detailed and life-sized ornithological illustrations, which served as both scientific records and artistic masterpieces. This piece serves as a poignant reminder of a lost species and Audubon's enduring legacy in natural history art.
