1918-1922
Louis Agassiz Fuertes was a bird-painting prodigy who could sketch a flying bird in seconds, and that speed and precision shine here in the lush jungle home of the Palawan Peacock Pheasant. The male bird shows off his iridescent blue-green feathers and fancy crest, while the female blends into the shadows with her camouflaged brown plumage—a perfect lesson in natural survival. Created between 1918 and 1922, this realistic masterpiece captures the exotic beauty of the Philippines long before modern photography could do it justice.
