Wild Turkey — Audubon, framed

John James Audubon's Wild Turkey from The Birds of America, taken from BNF Gallica's gigapixel CC0 scan, framed and ready to hang.

Plate VI from The Birds of America, the Wild Turkey — a mother with her young — occupies the page with domesticated grandeur. The adults' plumage moves with iridescent detail; the chicks scatter underfoot. Audubon opened the series with wild birds before they became tame, before the great herds were hunted to near-extinction. This plate carries the weight of that history: it's both a scientific record and a document of loss, made in an era when such duality could still seem invisible.

This is reproduced from BNF Gallica's CC0 high-resolution scan at full resolution, printed on archival fine art paper and framed in solid wood.
