Mass Audubon’s bird art collection spans four centuries and many genres thanks to generous gifts and bequests as well as purchases. The artworks provide insight into the complex history of birds’ interactions with humans—as inspiration, food, sport, the focus scientific exploration, and the motivation behind the first conservation movement in America.
