Riccord’s Humming Bird
Riccord’s Humming Bird
Riccord’s Humming Bird presents an emerald-green hummingbird suspended in flight beneath a flowering vine. Its slender bill points toward a large purple-pink trumpet flower while outstretched wings and a long tail give the small bird a graceful vertical presence within the composition.
Soft olive leaves, curling tendrils, hanging buds, and delicately washed foliage surround the bird without overwhelming it. Brilliant green plumage contrasts with dusty pink, lavender, muted gray, and warm cream tones. The original inscription identifies the subject as Riccord’s Humming Bird (Sporadinus Riccordi) and notes that it was drawn from a living bird in the possession of Mr. A. Ezra.
