"Passenger Pigeon" is a notable illustration by John James Audubon, an American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter, renowned for his detailed and dramatic representations of American birds in their natural habitats. The artwork is part of his seminal work, "The Birds of America," which was published as a series in sections between 1827 and 1838. "The Birds of America" is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed, featuring hand-colored, life-size prints of 435 bird species, made from engraved plates, and measuring around 39 by 26 inches.

The "Passenger Pigeon" illustration, specifically, depicts the now-extinct species, Ectopistes migratorius, which was once abundant in North America. Audubon's depiction captures the bird with meticulous attention to detail and vibrant coloration, characteristic of his artistic style. The illustration not only showcases Audubon's artistic skill but also serves as a historical record of a species that was hunted to extinction by the early 20th century.

Audubon's work has been celebrated for its combination of artistic beauty and scientific accuracy. His illustrations have contributed significantly to ornithology and the study of birds, providing a visual reference for many species, some of which, like the passenger pigeon, are no longer seen in the wild. The "Passenger Pigeon" stands as a poignant reminder of the fragility of biodiversity and the impact of human activity on wildlife.

The original "Passenger Pigeon" illustration, along with the rest of the "The Birds of America" collection, is highly prized by collectors and institutions. The work has been reproduced in various formats over the years and remains an important piece of both natural history and art. Audubon's legacy continues to influence contemporary conservation efforts and the field of wildlife art.
