FRAMED WATERCOLOR. COCKATOO
Decorative Antiques -
Reference: Z0297
Cockatoo. Framed watercolour. 20th century. Watercolour showing a cockatoo (possibly a sulphur-crested cockatoo) perched on a stone bench and holding a cherry with one of its paws. The detail and composition of the work are reminiscent of 19th-century engravings that appeared in zoology volumes (compare the work of Edward Lear, for example), although it is also worth mentioning the painting entitled “Animal Collection” by Melchior d'Hondecoeter (circa 1960) in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
