EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of two tern species captured by the renowned naturalist and artist, John James Audubon. The top image features the Forster's Tern (Sterna forsteri), with its elegant markings and distinctive webbed feet perfectly adapted for life on both land and water. Its slender beak is poised as if ready to dive into the depths of the ocean in search of prey. Below it, we are introduced to the Snowy-crowned Tern (Sterna trudeaui), also known as Trudeau's Tern. This striking bird exhibits a snowy white crown atop its head, contrasting beautifully against its spotted plumage. With a sharp eye fixed on its surroundings, this tern stands proudly on a cliff overlooking a picturesque bay. Audubon's masterful engraving technique brings these avian wonders to life, capturing their grace and majesty in intricate detail. Each feather seems to come alive under his skilled hand, while every curve of their bodies reflects Audubon's deep understanding of ornithology. Dating back to 1827-1838 when Audubon published his seminal work "Birds of America" this print transports us back to an era where early explorers marveled at nature's diversity along seashores teeming with life. From conch shells to sea urchins scattered across the sandy shorelines, this artwork encapsulates not only Audubon's passion for birds but also his love for depicting their natural habitats
