Etching from 1969. Pencil editioned in the lower left, signed in the lower right. Print number 27 in an edition of 110. Catalog: F & O 520. Image measures 23 1/2 x 17 1/2 inches in a red 36 x 28 1/2 inch frame. This print depicts the metamorphosis of man into bird, one of Baskin's recurring themes. His birdmen were inspired by those of Hieronymus Bosch and his religious background: they were considered a metaphor for spiritual insight.
