Rose-breasted Grosbeak by Audubon Canvas Print

Nothing in this soft cream and deep green bird study whispers, even when the study does. Audubon’s rose-breasted grosbeaks perch and tumble across a hemlock branch, with a sharp flash of rose-pink on the male’s chest pulling the eye through the page. Hang it above a writing desk, a leather reading chair or a narrow hallway console where the cream background can breathe against a chalky off-white or sage-green wall. It sits well with walnut shelving, linen and aged brass, and it loves the company of other vintage natural history plates. Avoid pairing with high-gloss modern abstracts or hot neon colour they fight the antique paper feel and flatten the small pink note that makes this piece sing.
