Passenger Pigeon
John James Audubon, The Birds of America, Plate 62 (Havell edition, 1827–38)

A pair of passenger pigeons feeding beak-to-beak — once the most numerous bird on earth, extinct in 1914. Audubon saw flocks that darkened the sky for days.

This museum-grade reproduction is made from a high-resolution scan of an original hand-colored aquatint, carefully cleaned and color-balanced, then printed on thick matte archival paper with a soft off-white border for framing. Every print is made to order and ships from the United States.

  • Printed on 189 gsm museum-quality matte paper (archival, acid-free)
  • Fade-resistant pigment inks — rich color, no glare
  • Vertical format · standard sizes fit off-the-shelf frames
  • Free US shipping — shipped rolled in a protective tube, made to order in 2–5 business days
  • Frame not included

About the source: the original artwork is in the public domain; our reproduction is prepared from an open-access scan of the Havell edition. Slight variations in tone from the original are natural to the printing process and part of the charm of vintage plates.

Part of The Plate Room's Audubon — Birds of America collection.
