Between 1942-1952, Roger Tory Peterson began producing artwork for the Quaker State Lithographing Company, creating original large scale paintings of life size birds. This never-before-seen display will feature newly framed lithographs that represent this seminal body of work from Peterson. Also featured will be a selection of works from one of Peterson’s field guide projects — The Peterson Field Guide to Wildflowers of Northeastern/North-central North America.
