Pedrix rubra, The Red-Legged Partridge is a 1644 ink by Albert Flamen, a Baroque work, depicting Hunting, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching shows a red-legged partridge standing on a rock. Its feathers are sharp and detailed. The bird faces right, with a plain background. This was made in the 1600s by Albert Flamen. He often drew animals and birds like this one. The paper feels rough under your fingers. It’s a quiet piece. If you like this, see more by Flamen, Albert.
