I found these in an old book that was given to me. They were in an envelope that looked original and aged..but I have no idea what compony/artist made these prints! Do they look familier to any one??? The details are really impressive and they are on thin glossy paper.
The lady that gave them to me was in her 90’s when she died.EDIT: Fixed.
They remind me of the work that John James Audubon did – like these…
Hope it helps!

Ooooooo! I think you have him. Those match right up. looks like he had a long history with wild life art. That really just makes these so much more interesting now!
Yep, those are indeed Audubon’s. Another great artist to look up is Basil Ede. 🙂
Audubon is probably THE most famous bird artist to date. He has a very strange and interesting story of wildlife art and conservation. Worth looking up.
