Chestnut-Collared Lark Bunting

by John James Audubon

Bring home the heritage of the American frontier through this wonderful reproduction of the painting by John James Audubon, entitled the Chestnut-Collared Lark Bunting. This particular image was originally painted in the course of Audubon’s journey up the Upper Missouri River back in 1843.

The image depicts the handsome male bird in full, colorful breeding plumage – including its rich chestnut-colored neck area, face markings, and white-striped wings. The bird is elegantly poised on top of a grassy hill, providing the viewer with an idea of the untamed North American prairie landscape.

Reproduced from the original hand-colored lithograph with great attention to detail in order to preserve the delicate linework, earth tones and feather details, this vintage art reproduction will be a welcome addition to any study or living room wall.
