About the piece

Painted in 1869 by Finnish artist Ferdinand von Wright, this oil painting captures a male and female black grouse with meticulous detail. The striking contrast between the cock’s iridescent black plumage and the hen’s camouflaged brown patterns is set against a soft, atmospheric backdrop of a hazy winter forest, showcasing the artist's expertise in ornithological subjects.
