Description:
Philadelphia:: Audubon, J.J.,, 1844.. Imperial Folio Edition. Fine with bright original hand-coloring. . A Fine original hand-colored lithograph by JT Bowen after painting by John James Audubon, FRS, FLS. Imperial Folio Edition. Rich original color, full margins; 22 x 28 inches. Custom framed: double French matted with gold leaf & burl moulding; sized to 34 x 29.5 inches. The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America (Philadelphia c.1845-48) represents the culmination of a lifelong dream held by America's most prominent naturalist and visionary, John James Audubon (1785-1851). Following the completion of his magnum opus, the Double Elephant Folio Edition of Birds of America, c. 1824-38, Audubon was at liberty to pursue a project close to his heart, large scale portraits of all of North America's native animals.

Description:
Avoca, Nebraska:: Blue Heron Press,, 2013.. Edition of 30. 11” x 5” closed, 11” x 35” open. Woodcut and letterpress on Japanese Nishinouch. Digital print on Asuka. Irregular accordion folding, into folio of covered boards with etching and mixed media decorative paper. Karen Kunc: "The cantilevered folds of a looming structure have subtle visual cues that seep and inundate behind and within. This edifice is made vulnerable by the hype and chatter of rumor and echoes; it is permeated by the consuming, swirling network of insistencies - the distractions of the media world we have created - that penetrates our every hour...fascinating, fanciful, insidious, precarious.
