“Summer Splendour” Limited edition print

“Summer Splendour” by British wildlife artist Nicola Jane celebrates the beauty and natural elegance exuded by the hen ptarmigan in its summer plumage, bringing to life the wild game bird’s exquisite colours and patterns.

Measuring 16 x 20 inches, the artwork is completed on 640gsm Saunders Waterford 100% Cotton HP Watercolour paper. The use of lightfast Fabre Castell Polychromos pencils ensures the longevity and vibrancy of the colours, preserving its allure for years to come.

Limited to only 25 copies, each print is numbered and signed by the artist, before being relief stamped with the Rigby logo. A certificate of authenticity is also provided.

Nicola Jane, the talented artist behind this masterpiece, has a deep admiration for these hardy birds found only in the highest mountains of the Scottish Highlands. She believes that the hen ptarmigan’s summer plumage surpasses that of the game bird’s winter whites and the colours of its male counterpart. Through her artwork, the artist aims to capture the solitary nature of this elusive bird while showcasing its natural beauty in exquisite black, brown, and gold hues.
