His major work, a color-plate book entitled The Birds of America, is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. He was notable for his expansive studies to document all types of American birds and for his detailed illustrations that depicted the birds in their natural habitats. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting. Artist: Audubon Subject: Animals Style: Traditional Product Type: Gallery-Wrapped Canvas Art This ready to hang, gallery-wrapped art piece features a pelican flying down from the sky. Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. John James Audubon (Jean-Jacques Audubon) was a French-American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter. Audubon identified 25 new species.
