EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Havells Tern and Trudeaus Tern" a hand-coloured etching with aquatint engraving created by renowned artist John James Audubon in 1838. The artwork, measuring 98.5x65.5 cm, is part of a private collection. Plate CCCCIX from Audubon's famous series "The Birds of America; from Original Drawings" this piece was engraved by Robert Havell Jr. , capturing the intricate details and vibrant colors of these two tern species. The image depicts the birds standing on a cliff overlooking the coastline, surrounded by sea shells and the vast expanse of water. The composition beautifully captures the essence of maritime life, showcasing Audubon's mastery in illustrating natural spaces and animal behavior. The hand coloring adds depth to each feather and shell, bringing them to life before our eyes. As we observe these elegant creatures in their alert posture, looking out at the view ahead, we are reminded of North America's rich biodiversity. This print serves as a testament to Audubon's dedication to documenting and preserving nature through his art. With its early 20th-century European influence evident in both style and technique, this artwork stands as an important contribution to American art history. It invites us into a world where wildlife meets artistic expression—a timeless reminder of our connection with nature that transcends time itself.
