About the piece

Created in 1828 by the Finnish artist Magnus von Wright, this masterful naturalist painting captures a male Common Eider in precise detail. The bird is depicted in its distinctive white and black breeding plumage with delicate sea-foam green accents on its head, perched serenely upon a dark rock against a clean, off-white background that highlights the artist's technical precision.
