This is just a great original piece. I have been buying more and more audubon and john gould original prints lately as I am finding they are coming back into favor. I have been selling more to younger people lately then I ever did. This is one of four original audubon imperial folio prints I recently acquired. This is an incredible view of the large rat.

Print is archival double matted and framed in a complimentary wood frame. Frame measures 27 1/2 x 33 1/2 inches.
