This iconic work consisting of 435 double elephant folio sized plates depicting 1,065 different species was printed by the Havell's of London between 1827 and 1838. Audubon sketched thousands of birds from life in the wild, and his original watercolors served as the basis for the volume's hand colored lithographs.
