About the Item

Sometimes the simplest images are the most complex. Peacock Displaying Blue and Green Plumage is more than a bird portrait. It's a portrait of a bird as a living work of abstract art. The photographers captures the bird in the three-quarter view. This is the most flattering angle to view the face and the eye-catching crest feathers that resemble the helmet of a Roman centurion, while the Peacock displays to attract a Peahen.
