EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the exquisite artwork of John James Audubon, a renowned American naturalist and painter. The subject of this piece is the Western fox squirrel, scientifically known as Sciurus niger rufiventer. Previously referred to as "Says squirrel" this majestic creature is depicted in its wild habitat, surrounded by an enchanting exterior. The scene unfolds in mid-19th century America, with a log cabin serving as the backdrop for this furry protagonist. The squirrel's vibrant red fur stands out against the earthy tones of the ground and tree stump it perches upon. Its bushy tail gracefully drapes over a fallen root, while its whiskers delicately frame its expressive face. Audubon's attention to detail brings this vivacious creature to life on paper. Every nuance of texture and form is meticulously captured through his skilled brushwork. As one gazes at this lithograph print, they can almost feel the energy emanating from the squirrel's alert posture and watchful eyes. This artwork serves not only as a visual delight but also as an educational tool for those interested in zoology and North American wildlife. It reminds us of Audubon's significant contributions to our understanding and appreciation of nature through his iconic series titled "Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America". Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable piece from their collection with utmost care and respect for Audubon's legacy.
