Cranes
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph print created by German artist Walter Leistikow in the late 1890s. This stunning work of art transports us back in time to the United States during the nineteenth century, specifically to a coastal location where these magnificent birds reside. The image showcases a group of cranes wading in the shallow waters of an American shoreline. Their long, elegant legs and necks are submerged in the water, while their bodies and wings are spread out in flight. The cranes appear to be in mid-flight, their wings outstretched, as they take off from the water's edge. The black and white color palette of this print adds to the timeless and nostalgic feel, emphasizing the beauty and grace of these birds in their natural habitat. Leistikow's masterful use of line and form brings the cranes to life, capturing their graceful movements and the delicate balance between their bodies and the water. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate textures of the cranes' feathers and the rippling water around their feet. This lithograph print, titled "Cranes," is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the late 19th century. It is a valuable addition to any collection of animal art or avian art, and a beautiful reminder of the natural wonders that can be found along the shores of the United States. This print, lithograph printed in black, orange, and beige on wove paper, is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). Walter Leistikow's "Cranes" is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and the natural world.
