Plate 177, White-crowned Pigeon by John James Audubon is a hand-coloured engraving from *Birds of America*. This botanical illustration depicts two pigeons among flowering branches, showcasing Audubon's blend of scientific accuracy and artistic skill.
This print depicts two white-crowned pigeons perched among flowering branches. It is Plate 177 from John James Audubon's *Birds of America*, a series of hand-coloured engravings. Audubon's project aimed to document all known bird species of North America. He combined scientific accuracy with artistic skill, creating life-sized depictions of birds in their natural habitats. The pigeons are rendered with careful attention to detail, from the iridescent sheen of their plumage to the texture of their feathers. One pigeon feeds the other, beak-to-beak, while perched on a branch with broad green leaves and clusters of orange flowers. The composition is carefully balanced, with the birds and foliage arranged to create a visually pleasing design. The background is left plain, drawing attention to the subjects. The print combines scientific illustration with artistic composition, reflecting Audubon's dual interests.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
