These avian pop-up cards animate four distinctive birds from
by John Jay Audubon.
Whether you use them to correspond with nature lovers or art aficionados,
these clever, graphic cards will be a welcome surprise to your recipients.
Featuring a creative shadowbox format for each,
these cards offer a unique new take on celebrated illustrations
that meticulously and beautifully depict birds in their natural habitats.
An artist, an observer of nature, and (most famously) a birdwatcher,
Audubon made 435 watercolor paintings for his pioneering 1839 publication.
Four exquisite lithographs by John T. Bowen, after Audubon,
provide the inspiration for the inventive note cards in this set.
An artist and avid nature enthusiast,
Audubon's collection of life-size bird prints captured a time when
America's wilderness seemed limitless and bountiful.
