Two birds-of-paradise with iridescent green heads and golden-yellow plumage perch among delicate foliage, their dramatic crimson tail feathers cascading downward in luxurious curves. This hand-colored naturalistic illustration captures the birds in precise anatomical detail against a soft, cream background, rendered in the ornithological style of nineteenth-century natural history documentation. At home in a naturalist's study, gallery, or any space celebrating the wonder of the natural world. Made to order by hand at our own Denver facility, it arrives as nine wood panels, each a half-inch thick with a keyhole on the back so it hangs easily. The natural grain shows through the artwork, so no two come out exactly alike.
