Painting Description
"Black-tailed Deer, No. 16, Plate 78" is a notable work by the renowned naturalist and painter John James Audubon. This piece is part of Audubon's monumental series "The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America," which was published between 1845 and 1848. The series, created in collaboration with the Reverend John Bachman, aimed to document and illustrate the diverse mammalian fauna of North America with the same rigor and artistic excellence that Audubon had previously applied to his celebrated "The Birds of America."
In "Black-tailed Deer, No. 16, Plate 78," Audubon captures the elegance and vitality of the black-tailed deer, a species native to the western regions of North America. The black-tailed deer, known scientifically as Odocoileus hemionus columbianus, is characterized by its distinctive black tail and large, mule-like ears. Audubon's depiction is both scientifically accurate and artistically compelling, showcasing his ability to blend meticulous observation with dynamic composition.
The plate features a pair of black-tailed deer in a naturalistic setting, rendered with exquisite detail and lifelike poses. The male deer, or buck, is shown with its impressive antlers, while the female, or doe, stands nearby, both animals alert and poised as if caught in a moment of stillness within their natural habitat. The background is richly detailed, providing context and depth to the scene, and highlighting Audubon's skill in creating immersive and realistic environments.
Audubon's work on "The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America" was groundbreaking in its scope and ambition, and "Black-tailed Deer, No. 16, Plate 78" exemplifies the high standards of artistry and scientific accuracy that he maintained throughout the series. This plate, like many others in the collection, serves as an important historical document, offering insights into the wildlife of 19th-century North America and reflecting the burgeoning interest in natural history and conservation during that period.
