EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Nicolas Robert, a French artist from the 17th century. The subject of this piece is a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua galerita), beautifully rendered using black chalk, brush, ink, watercolour, and bodycolour on vellum. The cockatoo takes center stage in this composition with its vibrant yellow plumage and striking crest. Perched on a fence post against an architectural backdrop, it exudes elegance and charm. The intricate details captured by Robert's skilled hand bring the bird to life on the page. The combination of black chalk and ink adds depth and texture to the drawing while watercolor washes infuse subtle hues into its feathers. The use of bodycolor further enhances certain features, creating a visually stunning portrayal. Robert's expertise shines through in every stroke as he captures not only the physical attributes but also the unique personality of this magnificent creature. This close-up view allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from its expressive eyes to each individual feather. This artwork serves as a testament to both Robert's talent as an artist and his keen observation skills when studying nature. It is no wonder that this piece has found its place in private collections worldwide for art enthusiasts to admire for generations to come.
