Red-Breasted Woodpecker

by John James Audubon

Bringing the raw beauty of 19th-century America to life in your own home, discover this stunning re-creation of John James Audubon’s celebrated woodpecker print. Originally part of his celebrated folio of The Birds of America, this work beautifully conveys the rich crimson tones, distinctive patterns of feathers and sheer vitality of the Red-Breasted Woodpecker (known in conjunction with historical regional varieties including the Red-bellied and Red-shafted types).

The artistry of Audubon is found in the composition of his bird prints, which he created in dynamic poses amongst textured gnarled tree branches. Each fine line and vibrant color has been carefully recreated to ensure that this print is true to the vibrant hues of the original hand-colored engravings. Ideal for an atmospheric gallery wall or classic study.
