Sinopsis

From the creator of Floriography and the Woodland Wardens Oracle Deck comes this beautifully illustrated exploration of the folklore, mythology, and history surrounding our favorite winged companions.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING ILLUSTRATOR

Birds have inspired us since the dawn of time: their elegance in flight, captivating colors, and delicate mannerisms spark hope, joy, and delight. Cultures around the world have historically looked to birds as sacred messengers, intermediaries between earth and sky, including them in myths and legends and using them to teach moral lessons and historical truths.

In Jessica Roux’s Ornithography, each of 100 entries focuses on one bird species, featuring a full-page color illustration in her detailed, darkly romantic style and the lore behind each bird.

  • A unique nature mythology and animal symbolism reference book
  • Presents 100 species and their cultural significance across myth, history, and tradition
  • With full-page artwork in Jessica Roux’s signature style, this elegant volume functions as a botanical-style illustration book, coffee table book, and collectible art piece
  • The perfect illustrated gift book for birdwatchers, gardeners, and history buffs who have every identification guide, as well as art, nature, and folklore enthusiasts

As intriguing and playful as the feathered muses that fill its pages, Ornithography invites you to discover the stories behind each winged creature. Open the book, explore the language of birds, and see the natural world in a whole new way.
