About the Item
A charming small-scale oil painting depicting a pair of California quail, rendered with lively impasto and expressive fauvist colors. The birds are portrayed with a painterly realism that captures their character and plumage, particularly the subtle shifts in iridescent blues, rust tones, and creams.
Executed on canvas in a close-up, cropped format, the composition emphasizes volume and gesture over naturalistic detail. The dark, moody background contrasts effectively with the brighter modeling of the birds, allowing their forms to stand out with sculptural clarity. The work is signed lower left: MJ Kotwas.
The artist’s brushwork suggests immediacy and spontaneity, with visible, layered strokes and attention to reflected light on the surface below the birds’ feet.

By Tina Figarelli
Located in Chicago, IL
Depictions of dead birds have a long and rich history in Western Art having been used as a subject matter by artists from Albrecht Durer to Pablo Picasso. The Golden Age of Dutch Painting brought an iconic rise to still-life painting. Much like decadent, ripe fruit and extravagant, sumptuous floral arrangements, these taxadermied birds were transformed into stunning examinations of color, light and texture.
