Welcome, and thank you for
visiting Princeton Audubon Limited, and for making us
your choice in Audubon fine art! All Princeton prints
offered on this website are investment quality, museum
grade prints. Princetons are neither posters nor
high-priced computer generated ink-jet giclee editions
which are even now losing their value. Princetons were
uniquely produced by
first purchasing the actual antique originals, and then transferring
all their detail and color through the rollers of a
press to the highest-quality paper.
There are simply no other prints like Princetons, each
being a fine art document of an actual original, right
down to the tips of the feathers!
Princeton has reproduced fine art prints for
The
National Gallery of Art, The National Portrait Gallery,
The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, The
Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum of
American Art, The Detroit Institute of Arts, and many
more where art critical reproductions were needed. Produced between 1985 and 1993 with a production
cost over 1 million dollars, and rarely marketed until
2002, Princetons are nearly sold out. Princeton
double elephants, the
world's only direct-camera Audubon facsimiles, are sold
unframed and shipped the next day. Thank you for your

| Historical note: Since Audubon portrayed each bird life size, the larger birds often had to be drawn in unusual positions to fit on the largest copper engraving plates then available, approximately 27 x 39 inches. When setting forth on his great project, Audubon wrote ... "...nothing, after all, could ever answer my enthusiastic desires to represent nature, except to copy her in her own way, alive and moving!" This is the great appeal of Audubon prints. John James Audubon's compositions are filled with the drama of life, or as he himself put it ..."alive and moving!" They are also the same size as life. |
FEATHER your nest!
Right: Audubon saw several
flocks of American flamingos in the Florida Keys in 1832, and
while anxious to obtain a specimen from which to make a
painting, he was never able to shoot one.

The flamingo’s highly specialized manner of
feeding is as noteworthy as its dramatic coloring.
The bird plunges its head underwater upside down, then
with the upper bill of its sickle-shaped beak serving as a
dredge and the tongue as a sieve, it scoops small shellfish from
the bottom of shallow lagoons.
