Chestnut-backed Tanager
Limited Edition Giclée Print (150)
This vibrant Giclée print depicts the Chestnut-backed Tanager (Stilpnia preciosa), a bird whose plumage is as striking as a painted jewel. The artwork captures the bird mid-perch, revealing its vivid chestnut head and back, iridescent turquoise wings, and emerald-green underparts—colours that shimmer like a living mosaic.
Native to South America, particularly the Atlantic forests of southern Brazil, Paraguay, and northeastern Argentina, the Chestnut-backed Tanager inhabits forest edges, woodland clearings, and gardens. Known for its social behaviour, it is often seen in mixed-species flocks, flitting energetically among branches in search of fruit, seeds, and insects.
This tanager’s dazzling plumage is not just for show—it plays a role in mate attraction and social interaction, making it one of the most admired species among bird enthusiasts.
The artwork is printed using archival pigment inks on museum-grade fine art paper, ensuring both the richness of colour and lasting detail. Each print is hand-signed and numbered by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Poetic Note
Forest light on feathered flame,
Emerald, chestnut, a jewelled name.
Dancing swift from bough to bough,
A fleeting wonder, here and now.
