In 1850, Bachman turned his artistic eye towards New York City, creating a stunning depiction of Union Square looking south. The bustling streets and towering buildings were skillfully rendered by Sarony & Co. , showcasing Bachman's versatility as an artist.

His birds-eye view of New Orleans, drawn from nature on stone, transported viewers to this vibrant city along the Mississippi River in 1851. Bachman's talent extended beyond animals and landscapes; he also immortalized various species through his work. The Western brush rabbit (formerly known as Bachmans hare) and Oregon flying squirrel both found their place on his lithographic canvas, revealing their unique characteristics for all to admire. One particular bird that caught Bachman's attention was the Sparrow - specifically, his portrayal of Bachmans Sparrow showcased its intricate plumage and delicate features.

Whether drawing from nature or using stones as canvases for creation, he painted vivid pictures that allowed viewers to experience America's diverse landscapes firsthand.
