Description

John James Audubon, in his notes, describes the Purple Gallinule this way: “Reader, although you may think it strange, I candidly assure you that I have experienced a thousand times more pleasure while looking at the Purple Gallinule flirting its tail while gaily moving over the broad leaves of the water lily, than I have ever done while silently sitting in the corner of a crowded apartment….”

The Purple Gallinule is a richly colored bird which inhabits the southeastern states of the U.S. It prefers freshwater marsh type environments, with lily pads, pickerelweed and other aquatic vegetation.

The Princeton Edition was printed on heavy, acid free, museum-quality paper using specially designed archival inks. This is an “offset lithograph” – not a “giclee” poster or inexpensive inkjet print. It was created by highly-skilled printers using traditional printing presses, and up to a dozen metal printing plates were used in the complex process.

The result is a truly exceptional print of Audubon’s masterful artwork, unlike anything else available on the market. The printing is so fine that it is indistinguishable from the stone lithograph prints created by Audubon in the 18th century.  This is a fine art edition strictly limited to 1500 prints. All Princeton’s are hand numbered and bear an embossed seal in the lower margin of the print.

As seen in the New York Times.
