13. John James Audubon

I thought I'd post some work by Audubon after hearing that his "Birds of America" will be auctioned off at Sotheby's for a possible $9.5 million dollars. It's one of the most important natural history books in existence. Here are some of the beautiful pieces documenting the birds of our country.

Snowy Owl


Raven


Great Egret


White Gyrfalcons


American Flamingo
