The Nest vintage portrait 20th century oil painting onEarly 20th century oil painting on canvas featuring a pair of birds and their nest of chicks. This painting is anonymous and has qualities of primitivism. The subject matter itself is rare and the artist created a story within a scene, with one bird feeding the chicks, while the other stands by. The painterly brushstrokes emphasize the act of painting, rather than striving for realism, and the end result feels like a story or mythology. Overall Size:
