EDITORS COMMENTS
This black chalk drawing by David Cox showcases the stunning beauty of a peacock in its natural habitat. Created around 1845, this exquisite piece captures the essence of the majestic bird with remarkable detail and precision. The peacock is depicted perched on a branch against a backdrop of lush foliage, transporting viewers to the enchanting village of Capel Curig in Snowdonia National Park, Wales. The artist's skillful use of black chalk on wove paper brings out the intricate patterns and vibrant colors of the peacock's plumage, making it come alive on the page. Measuring at 14.3x22.9 cm, this artwork is part of Yale Center for British Art's prestigious Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. It serves as a testament to Cox's talent as an English artist during the 19th century. With its sketchy yet evocative style, this drawing invites us into a world where nature reigns supreme and every feather seems to dance with life. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your own personal collection, this print is sure to captivate all who lay eyes upon it.
