Flamingos by Roger Tory Peterson | 1946 Vintage Nature Lithograph

Originally printed in 1946, this authentic offset lithograph by Roger Tory Peterson showcases a vibrant group of flamingos rendered in Peterson’s distinct Audubonesque style. A pioneer of modern bird illustration, Peterson helped awaken a generation’s appreciation for the beauty of the natural world — and this piece remains one of his most beloved.

This mint-condition print was produced by the Quaker State Lithographing Company and has been stored flat since publication. It is part of our exclusive “new vintage” archive — never framed, never displayed, and as bold in color as the day it was printed.

Pairing Idea

This print pairs beautifully with Snowy Egrets by Roger Tory Peterson — another mint-condition 1940s lithograph from the same series. Together, they form a refined and peaceful pairing ideal for nature-themed interiors.

More information

Just like the majority of our inventory at Pink Flamingos, this listing is vintage and has never been displayed or used. It's from limited, unopened stock sourced directly from the original manufacturer or distributer. As a result, its colors are more vibrant than those typically found in similarly aged prints, leading us to classify it as "new." Curious about new vintage? Read all about it in my blog: https://www.pinkflamingos.shop/blogs/news/vintage-vs-new-vintage-whats-the-difference

Please note that this listing is for an unframed authentic, genuine old print published in the early-to-mid 20th century using quality paper and inks. It reflects the colors and styles popular in decorative accessories of that era. The patina resulting from any minor discoloration or fading is indicative of its age and contributes to its uniqueness. In order to ensure your purchase lasts a lifetime, please follow this link for care tips.

What is "New Vintage"?
