EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured lithograph, titled "Brown Pelican, 1835", showcases the incredible talent of renowned artist John James Audubon. Measuring at 26x16.7 cm, this print captures the majestic beauty of a male adult Brown Pelican (Pelecanus Fuscus) perched on a leafy branch against a pristine white background. Audubon's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke and shade, as he masterfully brings this seabird to life. The lithograph was engraved, printed, and coloured by R. Havell after Audubon's original drawing made in the United States during the early nineteenth century. Published in New York and Philadelphia in 1835 as part of Audubon's iconic work "The Birds of America" this print exemplifies his dedication to capturing North American wildlife with unparalleled accuracy and artistry. The composition exudes tranquility as the pelican confidently rests on its perch amidst a lush foliage backdrop. Its distinctive brown plumage stands out against the vibrant green leaves, creating a visually striking contrast that draws viewers into its world. As we admire this exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back to an era when nature illustration flourished as an art form. This print serves not only as a testament to Audubon's genius but also as a reminder of our planet's rich biodiversity that deserves our utmost admiration and protection.
