This is a formal portrait of a Black Modena pigeon with a Bronze Shield (wing colour) from my series of portraits of fancy pigeon breeds. The Modena pigeon, as the name would suggest, originates in Italy and has been bred since around 1300 AD.
This work is part of Brendan Burden's Fancy Pigeons series. This series explores the unexpected and often under-appreciated beauty of the lowly pigeon. Through the use of formal portrait techniques, the pigeon is presented with an esteem normally reserved for less humble subjects. This unconventional contrast provides a new perspective on something many people see every day and give little consideration to.
*Signed limited edition of 25 printed on Moab fine art matte paper with archival inks. Print comes with certificate of authenticity and is signed and numbered in verso.
