A black and white bird with spotted plumage and an elongated forked tail stands in profile on pale ground, rendered in delicate line work and stippling that captures both the creature's refined anatomy and alert posture. The cream-colored paper and muted palette convey the precision and elegance of natural history illustration from the nineteenth century. Printed on clear acrylic and made to order in two sizes. A serving piece for the dinner party or a pop of color as a kitchen accent, carrying an independent artist's work instead of a big-box print.
