Dead young crow II
Charles Donker Dutch
Not on view
Charles Donker is one of the foremost contemporary Dutch printmakers. He is a member of a group called De Luis (The Louse), a group of graphic artists who since the 60s have been making works in a surrealist or heightened realist idiom. He has long been fascinated by the natural world and created a number of images of dead animals. Here he etched the still bird without any indication of its surroundings. He rendered the feathers of the young crow with a myriad of short delicate strokes.
