Snowy Egret, Egretta thula Print size: 26 1/4" x 39 1/4"; image size: 19 1/2" x 24 1/2" Produced 1985 - Princeton Audubon Limited Edition In the early spring of 1832, Audubon and his assistant George Lehman stayed at the home of John Bachman in Charleston, South Carolina. Audubon wrote of the thousands of snowy egrets that had arrived there by March 25 and "were seen in the marshes and rice fields, all in full plumage." Soon he painted this magnificent egret, while Lehman added the landscape of a rice plantation in the Carolina low country.Known to the plume hunters as the "Little snowy," the bird was adorned in breeding season with delicate plumes. Its lovely recurved back plumes were the milliners' "cross aigrettes," and it was for these nuptial feathers that the heronries were destroyed. "Where there had been hundreds of egrets in our southern states," Roger Tory Peterson writes, "there soon remained but a few hundred. The National Audubon society fought for plumage laws, and to meet the emergency hired wardens...Under protection the egrets and all the other long-legged waders have made a spectacular comeback."

High quality, hand crafted original jewelry pieces made exclusively by a world renowned artist who has practiced his craft for more than thirty years, you will treasure these creations for a lifetime. Each piece of jewelry is crafted using a 'lost wax' process and begins by carving in wax to create a model with an astonishing level of detail. The lost wax process involves embedding the wax into a flask with a plaster called- investment. Once hardened it is put in a high temperature to burn out the wax. Then molten silver or gold is used to make the jewelry. A rubber mold can be made to generate other wax molds for more castings. Then the jewelry is cleaned and polished into the beautiful pieces that our customers love to wear and give as gifts. SKU: 883jl340ep Category: Gardening Accessories
