A hand-coloured engraving by John James Audubon depicting the 'Tawny Lemming' and 'Back's Lemming' in a natural setting. This print exemplifies Audubon's blend of scientific accuracy and artistic skill in documenting American wildlife.
This print by John James Audubon (1785-1851), the American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter, depicts two species of lemming. Audubon is celebrated for his comprehensive studies documenting all types of American birds and mammals. His meticulous approach combined scientific accuracy with artistic skill. He aimed to record the appearance and habits of wildlife in their natural environments. This hand-coloured engraving presents the 'Tawny Lemming' (Georychus helvolus) and 'Back's Lemming' (Georychus trimucronatus) in a naturalistic setting. The lemmings are shown on a grassy hillside with a backdrop of distant mountains and a body of water. The detailed rendering of the animals' fur and the surrounding vegetation demonstrates Audubon's commitment to realism. The print is part of Audubon's larger project to document the fauna of North America, reflecting the scientific and artistic interests of the 19th century.

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.
