The story of the bird
The Rainbow Lorikeet (Trichoglossus moluccanus) is one of the most colourful birds in the collection, a small Australian nectar-feeding parrot with a blue head, green wings and an orange-red breast worn all at once. It could easily tip into noise, but this print keeps it elegant. The colour is carried on a clean ivory background with the eucalyptus detail kept restrained, so the piece reads as joyful rather than busy.
The plate shows the lorikeet perched on a flowering eucalyptus branch, the blue head and orange-red breast set against calm, spacious space. It is rendered in a contemporary Audubon-inspired natural-history style with a soft paper-grain finish. As joyful tropical wall art it brightens a sunroom, a garden room or a bright hallway, and it works equally as Australian bird art or as a colourful parrot gift with more refinement than a novelty print.

Paper and finish
Unframed prints come on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308gsm, a heavyweight cotton rag with a soft matte surface and true archival life. The surface holds fine lines and subtle colour gradients without glare, which matters for Audubon-tradition work where the cream ground needs to read as paper, not as a white field. The framed option is set in a classic moulding, glazed and ready to hang, in black, white or natural.
Sizes
Available as archival fine-art prints in 8x10, 16x20, and 24x30 inches, with framed and unframed options where available.
