About the Item

This print from the "Svenska Fåglar Efter Naturen Och På Sten Ritade" series features the Golden Eagle, Aquila chrysaetos, known in Swedish as "Kungsörn." The eagle is portrayed in a regal stance, perched on a rocky outcrop, which conveys its dominion over the mountainous landscapes it typically inhabits. The artist has captured the Golden Eagle's impressive stature and keen eyesight with a lifelike representation of its physical features. The bird's plumage is intricately detailed, with various shades of dark brown and golden feathers that highlight its name. The lighter golden nape contrasts with the darker feathers on the eagle's back and wings, while the tail showcases the characteristic white band of juvenile Golden Eagles, suggesting this may be a portrayal of a younger individual. Its powerful talons grasp the rock, showcasing the bird’s strength and its role as a top predator. The hooked beak is depicted open, perhaps ready to emit a powerful call, and the eagle's sharp gaze is directed outward, suggesting a vigilant watch over its territory. The print shows a remarkable attention to detail in the textural depiction of the bird's feathers and the rocky ground, with soft tufts of grass adding a touch of delicate greenery. This artwork, in very good condition, is a testament to the enduring legacy of such natural history illustrations, combining scientific accuracy with artistic beauty to capture the grandeur of one of the most revered birds of prey in the world. This is an original and NOT a reproduction!
