About the piece
Created around 1900 by American artist Otto Henry Bacher, this painting captures the fluid movement of a diving cormorant. The muted tones and expressive brushwork convey a sense of underwater weightlessness as the bird glides toward a small fish, while another cormorant rests on the water's surface above. The composition offers a unique, naturalist perspective on the bird's aquatic behavior, likely observed in an aquarium setting.
