John James Audubon

ARTIST

1785 — 1851American471 artworksNeoclassicism, Academic

John James Audubon (1785-1851) was born in Saint-Domingue, raised in France, and largely taught himself to paint. The Birds of America, issued to subscribers between 1827 and 1838, contains 435 hand-coloured plates and shows every bird at life size, which is why the pages are the size of a door. His method was uncompromising and not sentimental: he shot his specimens fresh, then pinned them to a board with wire armatures so he could pose them in flight or mid-strike while the colour was still true. No American publisher would take the project, so he sailed to Britain and found his engravers and his subscribers there. This archive holds high-resolution scans of his plates, free to preview and available as originals for printing.
