This 2007 open edition lithograph print of migrating birds by wildlife artist Charley Harper (1922—2007) makes a lovely gift for Harper fans, birdwatchers or anyone who loves nature and mid-century design aesthetic.
A conservationist as well as an artist, Harper revealed the unique aspects of his wildlife subjects through highly stylized geometric reduction.
"In the dance of life, ripe blackberries orchestrate the movements of a fluttering cardinal, a nimble chipmunk, and a box turtle who, when the coast is clear, will crane neck and head from within the safe confines of its carapace to claim its own prize. High, medium, low hanging fruit - sweet treats for everyone in the neighborhood, on a day free of predators but full of berries. Good day. Good world." ― Charley Harper
