About the Item
Plate 16 No. 4-2 Black-winged hawk. Falco Dispar, Temm. Male 1. Female 2. Drawn from nature by J.J. Audubon, Chromolithy, Julius Bien, lithographer New York 1860 from Audubon's Birds of America.
The “Birds of America” by John James Audubon is considered to be the single greatest ornithological work ever produced. In 1858, seven years after the death of his father, John Woodhouse Audubon decided to reissue this great set of prints. Julius Bien, as printer for the second edition, used the newest and most modern technique of the time, chromolithography, and printed what is considered to this day to be one of the finest examples of this process. Of the original set of 435 images only about 150 plates and 100 sets, for what is known as the Bien Edition, was completed when printing was interrupted by the onset of the Civil War. The Bien edition of the Birds of America printed by an American publishing house and very limited in availability,is a rare and great addition to any bird lovers collection. This print is in good condition with two tape marks in the border which can be matted out.

John James Audubon
John James Audubon (April 26, 1785, Les Cayes, Saint-Domingue (later Haiti) – January 27, 1851 (aged 65) Manhattan, New York, U.S.), born Jean-Jacques Audubon, was an American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter. He was notable for his expansive studies to document all types of American birds and for his detailed illustrations that depicted the birds in their natural habitats. His major work, a color-plate book entitled The Birds of America (1827–1839), is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed. Audubon identified 25 new species.
