Description

Chestnut-Collared Longspur Etching — Signed, Framed, Calcarius ornatus

This striking black-and-white etching captures the Chestnut-collared Longspur, a grassland bird of the North American plains, rendered in meticulous detail. The bird is shown perched on barbed wire, turned slightly in profile, with crisp linework emphasizing its feather patterns and expressive posture. The image is simple yet richly textured, evoking the quiet presence of this elusive species.

The piece is titled and signed in pencil along the lower margin and comes professionally matted and framed under plexiglass. A fine example of traditional printmaking, ideal for collectors of wildlife or natural history art.

Artist: Signed lower right (signature stylized)
Medium: Etching on paper
Framed: Yes, matted under plexiglass
Condition: See below


Condition

In good condition overall. The artwork itself is clean and well-preserved. The plexiglass surface has scratches and light chipping, and the frame shows some scuffing and minor wear, consistent with age and display. The print remains visually strong and presentable.
