Description
Three hoopoes perch among delicate botanical sketches rendered in warm ochres, russets, and pale greens against a cream ground. The birds display their distinctive crested heads and intricately patterned plumage with naturalistic precision, their poses graceful and observational in the manner of nineteenth-century scientific illustration. At home in a naturalist's study or a room celebrating natural history and ornithology. Printed to order on heavyweight matte paper at a petite 3-by-4 or 4-by-4 inches, with an optional poplar wood stand so it can sit upright on a desk or shelf. Small enough to fill the gap in a gallery wall or start a new one. Your first original, priced to collect more than one.
