About the Item
The reality is that this is an eye-witness account of a male peacock displaying for the attention of a female peahen. It turns out that humans are equally attracted to the peacock's charms. Our interests however are strictly aesthetic. To get this intimate peacock portrait, the photographer was 2 feet away and facedown in the dirt to get the slightly upward-looking view. The net result is an image that evokes beauty, joy by making our connection to the natural world. Robert Funk is a photographer and New York advertising art director for Print and TV. He was widely published in the 1970s and 1980s. - Signed, dated and numbered 2/15 recto, unframed, other sizes available. Printed later, Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper

Gun Hill Road. Boy Holding a Big Bird - Staged Photography
By Robert Funk
Located in Miami, FL
The big bird is a painting. I painted it. It's oil on canvas. I mounted it on plywood and silhouetted it with a jigsaw. I took the silhouetted bird with me on the subway. We each had our own seat on the trip Brooklyn to the Bronx
The station has changed. In a google stock image photo, you can see the geniuses have destroyed the beautiful character of the station. The early 20th-century signage and lighting fixtures have been changed by soulless and cheap looking replacements.
