Bird of Prey Art Print

from $35.00

A beautiful artwork inspired by the hybrid bird-women of Russian folklore. There are three different types including the Alkonost, Sirin, and the Gamayun. The Alkonost is a bitter, bird-like woman who prowls the forest branches to drag unsuspecting souls into oblivion. In contrast, the gentle Sirin lives on a heavenly island beyond the sea, where she guides lost souls toward eternal bliss and endless summers. The Gamayun serves as a prophetic creature in Slavic lore.

Bird of Prey was meticulously created using oil paint on gessoed wood by Russian-born artist Faina Lorah. This piece is reproduced on matte, museum-quality, acid-free archival paper using the giclée method. It is made to order and takes approximately 3 weeks to be completed and delivered. This print includes a generous white border ideal for matting and framing. It is packaged flat or rolled in a tube depending on the size and shipped in a recyclable container. Free shipping is included. This high quality reproduction is perfect for collectors.
