“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
John James Audubon's ''Long-Eared Owl'' #383 from the Amsterdam edition of Audubon's ''Birds of America,'' published in 1972. The book made Audubon a premiere wildlife artist who set a standard that persists even today and made him the measure of all bird artists. All 435 full-size color plates were published and limited to only 250 numbered sets. The copy used to reproduce these prints were taken from the Telyer's Museum in Holland. Long-eared owl measures 26.5'' x 39.5'', with 12-color offset lithography. Image contains slight horizontal wrinkling and slight chips to the edges, otherwise excellent condition.
