Original Royal Octavo 1st Edition
Yellow-crowned Night Heron
We have a fine selection of
popular and hard to find examples of Audubon's 'Miniatures' - the Royal Octavos.
These measure about 7 x 10 inches. On many, such as the Yellow-crowned
Night Heron shown here which sells for $1,800, you still see the original
binding holes. This heron offered here is a first edition, the most sought-after
grouping of Audubon's octavo prints.
Original Audubon/Havell Red-tailed Hawk
Dimensions 26 x 36 inches with the
entire watermark visible - J WHATMAN, TURKEY MILL, 1834
Small nicks around edges and two 1 1/2 inch tears, repaired, at top of
print. Part and plate number at top is trimmed away. Filled with the
drama of life, this print has been fully (and beautifully) restored by the
Philadelphia Print Shop, with old backing removed. (Thus, the
watermark is now visible) Coloring is outstanding and bold. Similar
plate sold for $16,730 plus buyer's premium at Christies in 2004, with
dealers now asking 21,000 to 25,000. This print has been in the hands
of a Pennsylvania family for many decades. Asking $14,000. Email us
for purchasing options.
SOLD
A rare offer: V. G. Audubon
1860 complete original Octavo birds and quadrupeds 10 volume set.
$80,000.
Only once in a generation does an offer like this
present itself. From the 1840's through the 1870's Audubon and his
family released the Octavo Birds and Quadrupeds. No one knows how many
were produced in total, however, this set produced in 1860 is exceedingly
rare in that it contains all 500 bird and 155 mammal images. Most 1860 sets
were text only. Set is in very good condition.
Contact us to make an offer on this
set.
Think OUTSIDE the nest!
Audubon is not just birds!
Toward the end of his life, Audubon endeavored to depict
all the known species of North American mammals. These were published
in three sets by J. Bowen between 1845 and 1848. Known in the trade as
the Imperials, his detailed images measured 22 x 28 inches. We have
produced same size facsimiles of these engravings, using the fine originals
from the Princeton University collection. These reproductions, as with
our Birds of America reproductions, are direct-camera prints. They
represent the first successful attempt to re-create directly from the actual
antique originals, instead of reproducing a mere photograph of an original.
The 100% rag, acid-free Somerset archival paper, is imported from England
and has the tone and texture of the originals.
The Grey Fox you see here is
priced at $300.
