EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "AUDUBON: MOLE. Star-nosed mole (Condylura cristata)" showcases the incredible artistry of John James Audubon and his dedication to capturing the beauty of North American wildlife. Created in 1851 as part of his renowned series, Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America, this print transports us back to a time when nature was still largely unexplored. The star attraction of this artwork is undoubtedly the star-nosed mole itself. With its distinctive nose adorned with tiny tentacles resembling a star, it stands out against the backdrop of lush foliage and soil. The attention to detail is remarkable; every hair on its body seems to come alive under Audubon's skilled brushstrokes. As we gaze at this lithograph, we can almost imagine ourselves in the field alongside Audubon. We can feel the coolness of the earth beneath our feet and hear the rustling leaves as we observe this elusive creature in its natural habitat. It serves as a reminder that even creatures often overlooked or dismissed as insignificant possess their own unique beauty and importance within our ecosystem. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this piece from history for us to appreciate today. Let it inspire us to explore and protect our natural world just as Audubon did over a century ago – reminding us that art has always been intertwined with science and conservation.
