"Red Face: A Vibrant Collection of Art, Nature, and Wildlife" In this captivating collection, we embark on a visual journey that explores the concept of "red face" through various mediums. From historical paintings to colorful illustrations and stunning photographs, each image tells its own unique story. On page 21, we encounter "The Penciled Pheasant, " an exquisite watercolor painting accompanied by handwritten text from 1810-17. The vibrant red hues of the pheasant's face demand our attention and leave us in awe of its beauty. Moving forward, we stumble upon a New Year Card featuring a policeman holding a truncheon with his large hand. The chromolitho print showcases the intensity of his expression as his face turns red with determination or perhaps exertion. Next up is an illustration from "Character Sketches from Charles Dickens. " Mrs Gamp takes center stage with her unmistakable red face portraying her boisterous personality and zest for life. This color litho artwork from c. 1890 captures her essence perfectly. A change in scenery brings us to page 18 where we discover the transformation of the Small Paraquet into what is now known as a Little Lorikeet. The delicate watercolor depicts this bird's crimson visage against lush green foliage, showcasing nature's remarkable palette. Nature continues to amaze as we delve into wildlife photography. A Snow Monkey in Nagano, Japan catches our eye with its snow-covered paw playfully covering its mouth - could it be hiding laughter behind that reddened face? Jigokudani offers further glimpses into the lives of Japanese Macaques; one adult sits stoically in the snow with hands stacked while another male fiercely defends his mate by gripping onto her protectively - their faces flushed with passion and loyalty. Perched on the edge of hot springs, another Japanese Macaque rests peacefully with its head resting on rock - serenity etched on its red face.
