Mansion House Antiques & Fine Art has dated this River Landscape Pastel Painting to the 1950s.
"Ibis" derives from the Latin and Ancient Greek word for this group of birds in shallow waters and flight.
Ibises all have long, down-curved bills, and usually feed as a group, probing mud for food items, usually crustaceans. They are monogamous and highly territorial while nesting and feeding.
Most nest in trees, often with spoonbills or herons. All extant species are volant, but two extinct genera were flightless, namely the kiwi-like Apteribis in the Hawaiian Islands, and the peculiar Xenicibis in Jamaica.
A professionally executed work with good attention to detail, with a superb realistic sky and water.
Presented in a period decorative swept frame finished in antique gold, the whole nicely preserved under glass.
There is a Gallery Label Verso.
