{"product_id":"cinnamon-bear-ursus-americanus-var-cinnamonum-by-john-woodhouse-audubon-1845","title":"Cinnamon Bear (Ursus Americanus, var. Cinnamonum) by John Woodhouse Audubon, 1845","description":"\u003cp\u003eJohn Woodhouse Audubon’s Ursus Americanus, var. Cinnamonum, Cinnamon Bear. Male \u0026amp; female. (1845) is a masterwork of Victorian zoological illustration, presenting the American black bear in its cinnamon-colored variation with remarkable fidelity. The two bears, posed with quiet alertness, display the sturdy build and textured pelage that fascinated 19th-century naturalists. Created in the mid-1840s at the height of public interest in North American wildlife, this plate combines scientific observation with refined artistry, distilling the essence of a species and its habitat into a clear, contemplative scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis listing offers a museum-quality fine art print produced by The Unique Maps Co., available on acid-free archival paper or artist’s cotton canvas. Each print is giclée-printed with long-lasting, pigment-based inks for exceptional color accuracy and detail. Choose from a range of sizes to suit your space, and opt for professional framing with conservation-grade materials. Personalization is available—add a discreet caption, gift dedication, or custom sizing and margins to create a truly bespoke piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAudubon’s son, the painter-naturalist John Woodhouse Audubon (1812–1862), played a pivotal role in advancing American natural history art. Working alongside his father in the field and studio, he brought a painter’s intuition and a naturalist’s discipline to The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America. His animal portraits are celebrated for their anatomical sensitivity, lifelike posture, and clarity of line—qualities that made these images indispensable to scholars and collectors then and now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe subject here—the cinnamon bear—is a color variant historically classified as Ursus Americanus, var. Cinnamonum, or cinnamon bear, reflecting 19th-century taxonomic practices. Showing both male and female together heightens the plate’s value as a scientific record and as a narrative of species diversity. Composed against a restrained setting that hints at forest understory, the bears’ forms occupy the foreground without distraction, inviting close study of their characteristic profiles, paws, and gently sloping shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColor is central to the print’s enduring appeal. A grounded palette of soft greens, warm orange undertones, and rich browns captures the bears’ cinnamon sheen while evoking the filtered light of a North American woodland. Fine, feathered strokes model the dense fur in subtle gradients, and discreet botanical textures enrich the scene without overwhelming it. The result is a striking balance of accuracy and atmosphere—an elegant statement piece for interiors ranging from classic libraries and studies to modern, nature-centered spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThoughtful and timeless, this print makes a distinguished gift for wildlife enthusiasts, natural history lovers, and admirers of 19th-century illustration. It’s an inspired choice for Christmas, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, birthdays, housewarmings, or as a meaningful memento for someone who has traveled through North America’s bear country.\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=\"\/it\/pages\/contact-us\"\u003econtact me\u003c\/a\u003e.
