Meadow Lark is a 1832 ink by Robert Havell Jr., a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a group of birds in a grassy setting. The birds have yellow bellies and brown backs, with white patches on their wings. They are perched on a log or a rock, surrounded by tall grasses and yellow flowers. In the center of the painting, one bird is flying away from the others. The background is a light beige color, which helps the birds and plants stand out. The painting is very detailed, with lots of textures and patterns. The artist who painted this is Havell, Jr., Robert.
The Havell family of Reading, Berkshire, England, included a number of notable engravers, etchers and painters, as well as writers, publishers, educators, and musicians.
