Capture the excitement of early American wilderness through the incredible reproduction of John James Audubon’s Kentucky Flycatching-Warbler (referred to now as just the Kentucky Warbler, Geothlypis Formosa). This impressive reproduction comes from Audubon’s celebrated 1840 First Octavo edition of his book, “The Birds of America,” where it appears as Plate 74. In this illustration, the male and female Kentucky Warblers rest elegantly amidst the wide and sweet-scented leaves of the White Cucumber Tree (Magnolia Auriculata).Audubon’s amazing ability to capture true-to-life movement is clearly evident in this piece. The bright yellow undersides and black “spectacles” of the male stand out impressively against the dark green foliage.
