ALIVE AND MOVING! John
James Audubon wrote,
"...nothing,
after all, could ever answer my enthusiastic desires to represent nature,
except to copy her in her own way, alive and moving!"
True to his desire, and unlike
scientific illustrations of his day, Audubon’s compositions were ‘alive and
moving’ in natural settings, and life size as well. However, to this
Audubon adds,
"Merely to say, that each of my illustrations is
of the size of nature, were too vague ... Not only is every object, as a
whole, of the natural size, but also every portion of each object. The
compass aided me in its delineation, regulated and corrected each part, ...
The bill, the feet, the legs, the claws, the very feathers as they project
one beyond another, have been accurately measured."
John James Audubon. Ornithological Biography, Volume 1 |

SERIOUS COLLECTORS ONLY:
We are in the
process of liquidating these Audubon prints from an old Scottsdale estate
here in Arizona. All six of these Audubon prints appear to be in good to
excellent condition and have been professionally cared for. They were framed
and matted in matching frames and mats at a shop in Scottsdale, AZ several
years ago. We want to sell the entire collection together, but may consider
selling them individually, depending on interest and offers. Please email
jangrams@mac.com with any questions or to discuss further.

| Bien Edition,
Plate 375 American Flamingo, dated 1860. The print itself measures
27" X 38". As you know the plate was limited to 106 sheets and was halted
due to the outbreak of the Civil War and it is estimated that only 50 sets
were published. The condition and color of my print have been described as
"exceptional" by both Audubon Prints Limited Partnership and Audubon House
and Tropical Gardens. Certificate of Authenticity
included as pictured. Print is currently in an oversized frame and
hangs 15' off the floor in a gallery. $52,000 includes an outstanding
frame.

The following plates from the desirable
1971-72 Amsterdam Edition of The Birds of America are offered for
sale at very attractive prices. Each plate has been kept in archival
storage, is in excellent condition and bears the identifying
watermark of the Amsterdam
edition. Whether you buy a less
expensive Amsterdam print or a higher-end Amsterdam print, the quality is
impressive. These were manufactured to the highest standards of their time
and were expensive when issued. They are distinguished by being the first
full-size replicas made of the original Havell edition and were limited to
250 sets. I have many other plates available in addition to those shown
below. Please ask for your favorite before you pay more elsewhere!
