Painting Description
"Shore Lark, No. 40, Plate 200" is a distinguished illustration by the renowned naturalist and painter John James Audubon. This artwork is part of Audubon's monumental work, "The Birds of America," which is celebrated for its detailed and lifelike depictions of a wide variety of bird species found in the United States. Published between 1827 and 1838, "The Birds of America" is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed, both for its scientific accuracy and its artistic beauty.
The Shore Lark, also known as the Horned Lark (Eremophila alpestris), is the subject of Plate 200. This small bird is notable for its distinctive black "horns," which are actually feather tufts that can be raised or lowered. Audubon’s illustration captures the bird in its natural habitat, showcasing its characteristic features with meticulous attention to detail. The Shore Lark is depicted in a dynamic pose, highlighting its unique plumage and the subtle variations in color that are typical of the species.
Audubon’s technique involved observing birds in their natural environments and then creating life-sized illustrations based on his observations and specimens he collected. His commitment to accuracy and his artistic skill are evident in the Shore Lark illustration, where the textures of the feathers and the bird's posture are rendered with exceptional precision. The background of the illustration often includes elements of the bird's habitat, providing context and enhancing the overall composition.
"Shore Lark, No. 40, Plate 200" is not just a scientific document but also a work of art that reflects Audubon’s deep appreciation for the avian world. His ability to combine scientific observation with artistic expression has left a lasting legacy, influencing both ornithology and the field of natural history illustration. This plate, like many others in "The Birds of America," continues to be admired for its beauty and its contribution to the understanding of bird species in North America.
