This image shows a simple, flat design of a bird with a human-like neck and head. The bird’s body is a black oval with a red circle inside it. Its head is a blue half-circle with a small yellow eye and black beak. The neck holds a white rectangular object with a gold chain loop at the top. The artist used bold colors and sharp shapes to create a striking, almost cartoonish look. This piece was made in 1921 using a mix of lithograph and watercolor. Next, check out Lothar Schreyer to see more of his bold, playful work.
