Birds, Insects, and Butterflies, signed P NEUMANN

Three beautiful oil paintings depicting various birds and insects with landscapes in the background.
Our works capture the finesse and precision of the scientific illustrations of the period, while incorporating the aesthetic elements of traditional landscape paintings.

The bird in art is a fertile theme.
From the middle of the 18th century, with the rise of the scientific and encyclopedic spirit, the taste for ornithological books developed.
The drawings, paintings and watercolors in these books depict birds with a concern for veracity.

The scientific craze for ornithological studies continued into the 19th century (at the turn of the century, 3,000 bird species were recorded, compared with 564 in 1758).
