EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures "The Borrowed Plume (w/c)" by John Charles Dollman, an English painter renowned for his intricate and imaginative works. The painting measures 25.4x37.4 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this enchanting scene, Dollman brings to life one of Aesop's fables with his masterful brushstrokes. A magnificent crow stands proudly on a terrace, adorned with the vibrant feathers of peacocks. With its head held high and wings outstretched, the crow struts confidently, displaying its borrowed plume as if it were its own. The composition exudes a sense of intrigue as we ponder the moral lesson behind this tale. The juxtaposition between the humble crow and the majestic peacock feathers invites us to reflect upon themes of vanity, identity, and authenticity. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured every detail of Dollman's masterpiece in this photo print. From the intricate patterns on each feather to the play of light and shadow on the terrace, every element comes alive before our eyes. "The Borrowed Plume (w/c)" is not just a painting; it is an invitation into a world where animals teach us valuable lessons through their actions. This stunning artwork serves as a reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that true beauty lies within oneself rather than in borrowed attributes.
