1849réf. 7317New York:: V.G. Audubon 1849-54. First Royal Octavo Edition. Fine with original hand-coloring. A fine original hand-colored lithograph on paper. Royal Octavo 10.5 x 7 inches. Drawn from nature by John Audubon drawn on stone by William E. Hitchcock and lithographed printed and colored by JT Bowen Philadelphia. Accompanied by the original text written by the Reverend John Bachman DD. The Quadrupeds of North America; portrayals of 155 four-legged mammals native to North America depicted in their natural environment was a collaborative effort between the premier nineteenth century American Ornithologist Naturalist Artist and Frontiersman John James Audubon 1785-1851 his sons John Woodhouse Audubon and Victor Gifford Audubon and the naturalist Reverend John Bachman. The four men were unified in their desire to document and portray what they recognized as a dwindling resource; America's native animals amidst the natural beauty of the untouched American landscape. Their collective wisdom predicted the impending effects of Manifest Destiny- man's encroachment on the wilderness and natural landscape of North America- and as such was the impetus for the journey. To document and then portray America's native animals in the splendor and majesty of the uninhabited North American landscape the team traveled westward from Audubon's home in Mill Grove Pennsylvania up the Missouri River and through territory just previously explored by Lewis and Clark; from the Canadian border of the Northern Russian Territories- now Alaska- then southward to Mexico. Arduous and monumental the journey is recognized in the pathos of the compositions. However the true legacy of the work rests on John James Audubon's prolific vision and mastery of his subject and medium. Heretofore unseen The Quadrupeds of North American is a wildlife classic: an essential and timeless contribution to both Early American culture and the Art of American Wildlife Painting. The American Review a Whig journal heralded the national origin of the Quadrupeds: "We have at last have a Great National Work; originated and completed among us- authors artists and artisans of which are our own citizens the Bible of Nature!" John James Audubon in the West. New York: Henry H. Abrams 2000. Sabin 2368. Wood 208. Archivally matted & framed V.G. Audubon, unknown

Uno sguardo nuovo completo e critico sulla corsa all'oro in California attraverso l'obiettivo della macchina fotografica per dagherrotipi La corsa all'oro in California è stato il primo grande evento della storia americana a essere documentato in modo approfondito dalla fotografia. Questo affascinante volume offre uno sguardo fresco completo e critico sulle persone i luoghi e la cultura di quell'episodio storico visti attraverso i dagherrotipi e gli ambrotipi dell'epoca.

Con numerose immagini pubblicate per la prima volta questo libro offre uno sguardo straordinario sulla trasformazione dell'Ovest americano. Yale University Press, hardcover
