Green Heron By John James Audubon – Posters and prints on paper or canvas by standard digital or deluxe giclee printing.
Reproduced from a chromolithograph by Julius Bien, with some hand-coloring, dated 1860; from the double elephant folio reprint edition of Audubon’s The Birds of America (New York: 1858-1860). “Green Heron” by John James Audubon is a captivating portrayal of a small, dark heron-the most widely distributed member of its family in the United States. Audubon’s meticulous attention to detail reveals not only the bird’s physical features but also its behavior and habitat. At close range, the heron displays a rich chestnut neck and greenish-yellow or orange legs. In strong light, its upper parts shimmer with an iridescent quality that may appear more blue than green. The composition captures an adult bird in the foreground, while a young heron nearby reaches for a Luna Moth. They inhabit a lush environment, surrounded by vegetation near a tranquil pool. Audubon’s work transcends mere ornithological illustration; it invites us to appreciate the delicate balance of nature and the quiet beauty of these avian inhabitants. The Green Heron becomes more than a scientific study-it embodies the spirit of exploration, curiosity, and reverence for the natural world.
