EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Frigate Pelican, also known as Tachypetes Aquilis, from John J. Audubon's renowned masterpiece "The Birds of America". Published between 1827 and 1838, this hand-colored engraving is a true testament to Audubon's passion for ornithology. In this image, we witness the Frigate Pelican in all its glory. Its vibrant feathers are beautifully depicted, capturing every intricate detail of its plumage. The bird's beak stands out prominently, showcasing its sharpness and strength. With clawed feet ready for action, it exudes power and grace. Audubon masterfully captures the essence of this wild creature in mid-action - diving and swooping with unparalleled precision. This portrayal not only highlights the bird's natural hunting instincts but also serves as a reminder of their remarkable ability to navigate through air and water effortlessly. Displayed against a backdrop that accentuates its beauty further, this print transports us into the world of ornithology like never before. It invites us to appreciate nature's wonders while providing valuable insights into these magnificent creatures' lives. As part of The Stapleton Collection in a private collection today, this artwork continues to inspire awe among enthusiasts worldwide. Its historical significance combined with Audubon's artistic brilliance makes it an invaluable addition to any fine art collection or exhibition dedicated to natural history or birds.
