American Cross Fox [Plate 6]
New York: Nagel & Weingartner.
Octavo quadruped print. Lithograph with original hand coloring. Page measures 10" x 6.5".
The fox has a long dark stripe running down its back, intersecting another stripe to form a cross over the shoulders. It tends to be more abundant in northern regions of Canada. From J.J. Audubon's "Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America". Minor scattered staining. A few small tears. John James Audubon (1785-1851) was an American naturalist, painter and ornithologist known for his extensive field work studying birds and then painting them. By the late 1830's, he was planning a new book on the viviparous quadrupeds of North America. Published by his sons between 1849 and 1854, as J.J. Audubon was too weak.
