We have a beautiful new graphic novel in, which is pretty much made for our store : Audubon, On the Wings of the World by Fabien Grolleau & Jérémie Royer. It celebrates the life of the great 19th century naturalist, John James Audubon who embarked upon an epic ornithological quest. With nothing but his artist’s materials, an assistant, a gun and an all-consuming passion, he set out to study and paint all of America’s birds. He produced 'The Birds of America', which is considered one of the finest masterpieces of natural history and art. The graphic novel reads more of a romanticised view of his life, capturing the spirit of early America’s unexplored wilderness, charting the rise of this exceptional artist who now is regarded one of the greatest natural historians ever. • #johnjamesaudubon #audubon #onthewingsoftheworld #nobrow #graphicnovel #illustration #easternbiological #birdsofamerica
