Collection of 4 Vintage 1966 John James Audubon Double-Sided Waterbird Prints Featuring Birds, Plovers and Sandpipers
A remarkable collection of four double-sided vintage bird prints after John James Audubon, featuring eight celebrated waterbird compositions.
The collection ranges from the richly patterned Bemaculated Duck and Ruddy Duck to the graceful Long-Legged Sandpipers and beautifully detailed Black-Bellied Plovers. Green Herons appear among lush aquatic plants, while American Bitterns stand dramatically against a dense marshland backdrop. The grouping is completed by atmospheric depictions of Least Stormy Petrels soaring above the ocean and a charming pair of Little Auks resting along the water.
Collectively, the prints offer a sophisticated palette of chestnut, rust, ivory, charcoal, slate blue, muted green, golden brown, black and warm earth tones.
Each page is printed on both sides, providing eight different Audubon images across four individual sheets. The buyer may select which side of each page to showcase, creating a coordinated grouping of four framed works. They could also be displayed in double-sided glass frames, allowing both sides to be appreciated.
Each sheet measures approximately 8.5 inches wide by 12.75 inches high. There is ample blank space at the top and bottom of the compositions, allowing the pages to be carefully trimmed, if desired, to accommodate slightly shorter or standard-size frames without interfering with the primary artwork.
These striking natural-history prints would create an impressive gallery wall in a living room, library, study, dining room, entryway, coastal home or garden room. Their timeless imagery works effortlessly across traditional, English country, grandmillennial, coastal, cottage, rustic and contemporary interiors.
The collection includes, back to back:
• Green Heron / Black-Bellied Plover
• American Bittern / Bemaculated Duck
• Little Auk / Least Stormy Petrel
• Ruddy Duck / Long-Legged Sandpiper
