Bringing the colorful history of the early days of American ornithology into your house with this wonderful reproduction of John James Audubon's painting "American Golden-Crested Kinglet" (presently known as Golden-Crowned Kinglet, Regulus Satrapa).The painting originally appeared as plate 132 in his famous book titled "Birds of America," featuring both male and female kinglets poised on the leaves of the Thalia dealbata (powdery alligator-flag) plants. The artist brilliantly managed to portray the lively nature of the birds in the picture along with the beautiful golden crown crests of the male birds and the yellow stripes of the females.All the fine details of feathers and eyes are faithfully reproduced, which makes this a great work of art not only for ornithology lovers but also for those who admire nature paintings and botanical artwork.
