About the Item

One of the main motifs in Georges Braques late printmaking oeuvre is the bird. By depicting the bird as itself or the flight of birds, Braque found what he called the "still life of the skies". This quote is much more understandable if one is viewing into Braque's earlier artworks where he was deeply engaged with still life arrangement of tea cups and cans, fruits and flowers. This coloured etching shows three birds flying together. The main focus lies on the haptic structure of the birds' bodies. Bringing heavy structure on to his printed works, is one of the most interesting aspects of Braque's printmaking. 73 x 56,5 cm, signed by the artist, copy 33/75, complete edition of 75
