EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a newly hatched bird of prey, dating back to around 1910. Created by Herbert E. Crowley, an artist known for his mystic and avant-garde style, this artwork measures approximately 15.7x22.6 cm and is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The image showcases a fantastical scene where a young bird with comic-like features emerges from its egg on the edge of a cliff. With its wings spread wide and beak open wide, it exudes both humor and symbolism simultaneously. The watercolor technique used adds depth and vibrancy to the painting, creating an almost psychedelic effect against the blue sky backdrop. Interestingly, this piece may have been inspired by "Wiggle Much" a short-lived comic strip published by the New York Herald in 1910. This connection adds another layer of intrigue to the artwork's history. Overall, this whimsical illustration invites viewers into a world where dreams merge with reality and birth takes on fantastical dimensions. It combines elements of humor, absurdity, mysticism, and fantasy to create a truly unique visual experience that transcends time.
