Portrait of a barn swallow perched on two crossed branches against a clean, saturated blue sky, without the atmospheric background usual in the rest of the artist's series. The contrast between the intense blue of the background and the swallow's plumage — iridescent blue-black back, throat and forehead a warm orange, white chest — is especially sharp. The long forked tail feathers extend downward, adding lightness to a vertically oriented composition that is somewhat unusual in the series.

The artwork is shipped un-stretched, rolled, and protected in a transport tube to ensure its preservation. Framed images are for guidance only; the frame is not included in the sale.
