A detailed hand-coloured engraving with aquatint by John James Audubon, Plate 102, "Blue Jay" depicts three blue jays perched on a branch with flowers, showcasing their distinctive plumage and natural behaviour.
John James Audubon (1785-1851) was an American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter, notable for his extensive studies documenting all types of American birds and for his detailed illustrations that depicted the birds in their natural habitats. His major work, *The Birds of America*, is a collection of 435 life-size prints. Audubon's work combines artistic skill with scientific observation. He is considered one of the foremost naturalists of the early 19th century. His legacy continues through the National Audubon Society, which promotes conservation. Plate 102, "Blue Jay", presents three blue jays perched on a branch with flowers. The birds are rendered with meticulous detail, capturing their distinctive blue plumage, black markings, and white underparts. One jay is depicted with a white object in its beak, possibly a nut or insect larva. The surrounding foliage and flowers add to the naturalistic setting, providing context for the birds' behaviour and habitat. The composition is carefully arranged to showcase the birds' anatomy and behaviour, reflecting Audubon's scientific approach.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.

shooting birds and wiring them into poses to paint them life-size, fabricating his own biography, and having his name dropped by the society that bore it
