Price History
Description
A vintage illustration of tropical birds by John James Audubon. This print comes with a dark frame. John James Audubon (1785-1851) was an American self-trained artist, naturalist and ornithologist. His combined interests in art and ornithology turned into a plan to make a complete pictorial record of all the bird species of North America. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this print for bringing a touch of vintage botanical charm to modern or eclectic interiors. Its bold colours and detailed illustration make it a real focal point, especially suited to spaces with neutral palettes or natural materials. It works particularly well in living rooms, study nooks, or even a bedroom where you want a hint of nature-inspired interest. For styling, consider pairing it with simple, understated frames or placing it alongside other botanical or vintage artworks to create a curated gallery effect. Layering with textured fabrics or adding greenery nearby can enhance the natural theme, making this piece a versatile and engaging addition to various schemes.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
