{"product_id":"oregon-flying-squirrel-pteromys-origonensis-by-john-woodhouse-audubon-1845","title":"Oregon Flying Squirrel (Pteromys Origonensis) by John Woodhouse Audubon, 1845","description":"\u003cp\u003ePteromys Origonensis, Oregon Flying Squirrel. Natural size. (1845–1848) by John Woodhouse Audubon is a refined Victorian zoological illustration that captures the quiet marvel of a nocturnal glider. John Woodhouse Audubon—American artist and naturalist, and the younger son of John James Audubon—produced this plate during the great 19th‑century efflorescence of natural-history art. Rather than staging a dramatic wilderness scene, he isolates the animal against a pale ground to emphasize form, proportion, and the distinctive anatomy that enables flight. The inscription’s reference to “Natural size” signals the era’s devotion to life‑scale accuracy and the educational purpose of these images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis listing offers a museum-quality fine art print, meticulously reproduced from the historic original, available on acid-free archival paper or artist’s cotton canvas. Choose from a range of sizes, with optional professional framing and matting to suit classic or contemporary interiors. The Unique Maps Co. also provides personalization—custom captions, dedication lines, and design adjustments—so your print arrives ready to hang or to present as a thoughtful gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the artist: John Woodhouse Audubon (1812–1862) was a painter-naturalist whose fieldwork and studio craft helped define the visual language of American zoological illustration. A key contributor to the Audubon family’s celebrated natural-history projects, he combined careful observation with a sensitive painterly touch, creating plates that still resonate for their clarity and quiet beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the subject: The Oregon flying squirrel appears here under its historical scientific name, Pteromys Origonensis, with the common name “Oregon Flying Squirrel.” The composition highlights the gliding membrane and poised body, presenting features essential for identification. Works like this were indispensable to 19th-century naturalists, collectors, and educators, advancing species documentation during a period of exploration and scientific classification across North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the style and color: Set against a luminous white ground, the squirrel’s russet‑to‑amber fur is modeled with delicate strokes that capture sheen and softness, while the supporting foliage shows fine veining in muted greens and yellow‑olive tones. The restrained palette—white, warm orange-browns, and soft yellow accents—keeps attention on contour and anatomy, yielding a crisp, timeless image. Its clean, scientific elegance makes it exceptionally versatile on the wall: striking on its own, and harmonious in a gallery of natural-history prints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA beautiful choice for nature lovers, hikers, and admirers of the Pacific Northwest, this print makes a refined gift for birthdays, Christmas, Father’s or Mother’s Day, a housewarming, or for anyone recently returned from exploring Oregon’s forests. It brings a touch of 19th‑century curiosity and scholarly charm to studies, libraries, nurseries, and modern living spaces alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you're not sure what size to order, or you're looking for a custom order of some kind \u003cspan\u003e–\u003c\/span\u003e a different size, a different colour, a special frame \u003cspan\u003e–\u003c\/span\u003e then please \u003ca href=\"\/de\/pages\/contact-us\"\u003econtact me\u003c\/a\u003e.
