Havell
Edition Audubons from the Earl of Caledon Set
The prints in BOLD are
part of the Havell Edition Plates that were originally
part of John James Audubon's personal set. Audubon did
most of his sales himself, and in September of 1842
he traveled to Canada to meet with the Lord Caledon,
the Third Earl of Caledon. Audubon sold his personal
set of plates to the Earl (along with a subscription
to his Quadrupeds), and they remained in Canada with
the family of the Earl until they were individually
auctioned at Sotheby's in January of 1985. Those listed
here were purchased by Shelby Gilley.
The prints that are not listed
in bold italics are also Havell Edition prints, but
were not part of the Earl of Caledon Set.
