{"title":"Double Elephants","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe Princeton Double Elephant Edition and Rare Prints Edition offered here represent two exceptional ways to enjoy the artistry of John James Audubon without the cost of an original Havell engraving. The Princeton Double Elephant Edition is the world's only direct camera edition and consists of museum-quality, limited-edition lithographs printed in Audubon’s original monumental format of approximately 26\" x 39\", produced using a direct-transfer lithographic process from actual original prints to achieve remarkable fidelity in color, detail, and overall appearance. The modern Rare Prints Edition offers a fine-art giclée presentation of Audubon’s most beloved images, printed with archival inks on heavyweight Somerset Velvet paper, also in limited editions of 1,500. Together, these editions provide collectors, decorators, and bird enthusiasts with faithful, museum-quality reproductions that capture the drama, beauty, and life-size impact of Audubon’s celebrated \u003cem data-start=\"1121\" data-end=\"1139\"\u003eBirds of America\u003c\/em\u003e, making some of the finest natural history artwork ever created accessible for display in homes, offices, and collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e“With their astounding detail, definition, and color, the Princeton direct-camera facsimiles have long set the standard in Audubon Birds of America lithographs.\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e - Louise Mirrer, The New-York Historical Society.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ca title=\"Home page\" href=\"https:\/\/princetonaudubonprints.com\/\"\u003eBack to Princeton Audubon Prints Home Page\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"princeton-audubon-purple-heron","title":"Purple Heron","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe Purple Heron or Reddish Egret\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Princeton Audubon Double Elephant Edition •Double elephant (life size - 26 1\/4 x 39 1\/4) •Limited edition of 1500. •Pencil-numbered and embossed with the Princeton Audubon Limited seal. •Up to 11 color plates used. •Specially developed fade-proof inks.

When he first saw them in the Keys, he puzzled at their coloration: “Some of them were as white as driven snow, the rest of a delicate purplish tint, inclining to grey on the back and wings, with heads and necks of a curious reddish colour. Males and females there were, but they were all of one species…” He concluded that those with white plumage were immature birds. He was incorrect, since in this species, coloring depends on the individual and has no relation to either age or sex. It is dimorphic and displays two color phases, one white, the other purplish blue. The birds illustrated here are both adults.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe reddish egret inhabits shallow, open salt pans. When wading, it often rakes the bottom with one foot to stir up the prey and when pursuing fish, it has a habit of spreading its wings in a canopy, then running, hopping, and cavorting in a curious dance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton Audubon Edition","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37646042699,"sku":"","price":550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2221\/0931\/products\/AudubonprintPurpleHeronorReddishEgret.jpg?v=1710883591"},{"product_id":"princeton-audubon-brown-pelican","title":"Brown Pelican","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe Brown Pelican\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Princeton Audubon Double Elephant Edition •Double elephant (life size - 26 1\/4 x 39 1\/4) •Limited edition of 1500. •Pencil-numbered and embossed with the Princeton Audubon Limited seal. •Up to 11 color plates used. •Specially developed fade-proof inks.
