More about this artwork
This beautiful painting by John James Audubon, titled "American Robin," captures the vivid details and vibrant life of these birds in their natural habitat. The artwork is part of Audubon's famous series, "Birds of America," which is renowned for its highly detailed and accurate illustrations of birds in their environments.In the painting, we see a group of American Robins depicted with remarkable lifelike quality. The focal point is a nest tucked into the fork of a tree branch, surrounded by lush green leaves. The nest contains three robins: two are perched and seem to be interacting with each other, while the third is in a striking pose, wings spread as if it has just landed or is about to take off.One of the robins at the side of the nest has a vibrant red-orange breast, which is characteristic of the species, and is depicted holding a red fruit in its beak, likely a berry, which adds a splash of color contrasted against the green leaves.

John James Audubon (April 26, 1785 – January 27, 1851), born Jean-Jacques Audubon, was an American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter. He was 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, a color-plate book entitled The Birds of America (1827–1839), is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed. Audubon identified 25 new species.
