EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic beauty of a Peregrine Falcon, also known as a Duck Hawk. The image is an engraving created by John James Audubon for his renowned work, Birds of America, which was published between 1827 and 1838. The falcon's intense gaze pierces through the viewer's soul, capturing the essence of its predatory nature. Its sharp beak and powerful talons are visible in intricate detail, reminding us of its ability to swiftly kill its prey with precision. The plumage of this magnificent bird is meticulously depicted, showcasing the subtle variations in color and texture that make it such a stunning creature. Each feather seems to come alive on the paper, adding depth and dimension to Audubon's masterful artwork. In this particular scene, we witness the falcon perched on an exterior branch against a backdrop of wild surroundings. A single blood drop can be seen near its feet, serving as a reminder that even though it appears calm and composed now, it is still very much a predator capable of taking down any unfortunate duck or other small prey that crosses its path. This print not only captures Audubon's incredible talent as an ornithologist but also serves as a testament to the awe-inspiring beauty found within our natural world. It invites viewers to appreciate both the delicate intricacies and fierce power embodied by these remarkable creatures.
