DescriptionPoured keenstone relief of a bird sitting tall on a small branch. The bird's body is seen front-on but its head is turned to the right and shown in profile. It has a large eye, pointed short beak, a feather standing up over its head, and five tail feathers. Wavy lines of keenstone surround the bird and the plat on which it perches. The entire relief is mounted on a wooden frame, which is painted turquoise.On View
