Measuring 71x63.5 cm, this stunning piece is part of a private collection and captures the essence of English art during the nineteenth century. The image depicts a female buzzard in all her majestic glory, with her wings spread wide as she soars through the countryside. The intricate hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy to every detail, bringing the artwork to life. Shield's meticulous attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of both the bird and its surroundings. The rural landscape serves as an idyllic backdrop for this predatory creature, emphasizing its place within nature's hierarchy and highlighting its role in maintaining balance within the food chain. With no human presence in sight, this artwork invites viewers to immerse themselves fully into nature's realm. It evokes feelings of tranquility and awe as we witness this magnificent bird on its journey through time. This enchanting print not only celebrates the beauty of wildlife but also pays homage to traditional engraving techniques that were prevalent during mid-nineteenth-century England.
