First engraved in London by Robert Havell in 1828, John James Audubon’s 'Red-headed Woodpecker' represents a pinnacle of nineteenth-century naturalist art. This classical composition captures the dynamic vitality of three woodpeckers amidst a decaying tree limb, rendered with rigorous anatomical precision and dramatic narrative tension. Each print, whether executed on archival cotton rag or premium canvas, is finished with a consistent, clean white gallery border. This refined, gallery-ready presentation floats the historical artwork in its original, uncropped proportions, preserving the integrity of Havell's masterfully etched lines and Audubon's vivid hand-colored palette.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
