There, there...
My first attempt at photo editing, please be gentle. I just love these two, okay? 🙈
Photo of the figures by me and the background is Joseph Stella: The Brooklyn Bridge: Variation on an Old Theme (1939).
Programs used: Windows 10 version of Microsoft Photos and Paint 3D (I'm cheap that way)

#WorldSparrowDay:
Joseph Stella (Italian-American, 1877-1946)
1. Dance of Spring (Song of the Birds), 1924, oil on canvas
2. Study for Song of Birds, c.1924, silverpoint & crayon
from the 2023 “Joseph Stella: Visionary Nature” exhibition at Brandywine Museum of Art
“Stella assembles a classical temple of flora and fauna - in his own words, culled ‘from the elysian lyricism of the Italian spring.’ Flowers rise from a pink lotus at the base of a central column, culminating in the curious combination of a lupine and a longhorn steer's head flower, a floral form that resembles a bull's skull. Below perch three sparrows, the national bird of Italy* and a favorite of Stella's. He may have worked out this group separately in a silverpoint composition (on view adjacently) featuring the birds set among the branches of a winterberry tree rather than within a floral temple.”
🆔 Italian sparrow (Passer italiae)
