1827-1838
John James Audubon was famous for showing birds in action, not just sitting on a branch like boring old museum specimens. Here, he captures the brutal reality of nature with a Sharp-shinned Hawk perched on a gnarly branch, clutching a freshly caught victim in its bright yellow talons. The top bird dives down with intense focus, showcasing the predator's deadly grace. Audubon traveled across America to sketch these scenes, often shooting birds and posing them with wires to get these dynamic, lifelike compositions for his massive, life-sized book, The Birds of America.
