A Louisiana heron stands in profile with deep blue plumage, yellow legs, and a sharp golden bill, posed among lush green marsh vegetation and calm water. The composition balances the bird's elegant posture against a softly rendered background of palm trees and distant shoreline, rendered in the precise naturalistic style of 19th-century ornithological illustration. At home in a naturalist's study, a coastal cottage, or a room devoted to natural history and wildlife. 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.
