Product description
The vibrant crimson plumage of the adult Scarlet Ibis is a direct result of its diet, which is rich in carotenoids found in crustaceans. In this meticulous scientific composition, the mature bird with its intense red feathers dominates the left side, curving its long neck toward a white juvenile ibis perched on a mossy rock.
About John James Audubon
John James Audubon’s Birds of America was published between 1827 and 1838, with life-size engraved plates coloured by hand. Audubon showed birds in dramatic, lifelike poses among the plants of their habitat. Natural history bird illustrations were made to record species accurately, often life-size.
Styling this John James Audubon print
Red tones give this John James Audubon print a vibrant character that holds a room. As a landscape piece, “Scarlet Ibis” fills the space above the bed at 24×36″, while 12×18″ suits a smaller wall, and it is a natural fit for a bedroom. Finish “Scarlet Ibis” with a simple black or oak frame: its red palette stands out against warm neutrals and charcoal. For a gallery wall, pair “Scarlet Ibis” with two or three smaller red prints, spaced 2–3 inches (5–8 cm) apart.
