A plump eagle-owl perches upright on a lichen-covered branch, its distinctive ear tufts raised and piercing yellow eyes gazing forward with quiet intensity. Rendered in soft watercolor with meticulous detail, the bird's mottled brown and cream plumage contrasts against the pale cream ground, while delicate botanical linework frames the composition with naturalistic restraint. At home in a naturalist's study or alongside other vintage ornithological collections. A Baltic birch top with a beveled edge and satin finish, the artwork printed across it, made to order on steel legs in black or gold. A working piece of furniture that earns its place as an independent artist's work.
