Description
A collection of woodpeckers and related birds rendered in naturalistic detail fills a cream-colored ground, each specimen positioned at varying angles and scales across the composition. Warm ochres, deep browns, blacks, and touches of red create a studious, encyclopedic mood characteristic of 19th-century ornithological illustration, with fine linework defining feathers and anatomical features. At home in a naturalist's study, library, or anywhere curiosity about wildlife is nurtured. 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.
