EDITORS COMMENTS

The hand-colored engraving by renowned artist John James Audubon takes us back to the early 19th century when this stunning bird roamed freely along riverbanks in North America. The image captures a close-up view of three Black-throated Divers standing on an embankment by the side of a river. Their sleek black feathers and distinctive white stripes create a striking contrast against the serene backdrop of nature.
