Plate 120 Tawny Leming, Back's Leming (North American Brown Lemming) from The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America by John James Audubon
This image was scanned at very high resolution directly from the original book, The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America by naturalist and painter John James Audubon (published in sections between 1845 and 1848 as a series). It has then been edited, cropped, sharpened and enhanced as needed for large scale format and use. These 150 hand colored life-size watercolors in the original portfolio, reproduced from hand-engraved plates, are all available here on Alamy
