Rare 1978 Robert Bateman Majesty on the Wing – Bald Eagle Signed Numbered Print

SOLD

Original vintage Robert Bateman print of “Majesty on the Wing – Bald Eagle.”

“The air is the eagle’s domain, and in Majesty on the Wing I wanted to capture the presence of the atmosphere. The wings seem to seize volumes of air. I have orchestrated the shapes of the snow patches to echo the strokes of the wing feathers and to emphasize the thrust of the bird through the air. I have usually observed bald eagles in a landscape of sombre power and that is the mood I sought to portray.” -Robert Bateman, from The Art of Robert Bateman
