Perhaps they symbolize hidden depths within ourselves or serve as messengers from another realm altogether. As we admire this exquisite print by Edward Calvert, we are reminded not only of his artistic genius but also how art has the power to transport us into realms where imagination reigns supreme – inviting us to explore our own connection with nature and delve
