Corvidae

Artist: Scouller, Lara · b. 1983

The artist was in Italy on a 2006 RSA John Kinross Travel Scholarship.

Corvidae is a cosmopolitan family of oscine passerine birds that contains the crows, ravens, rooks, jackdaws, jays, magpies, treepies, choughs and nutcrackers. In common English they are known as the crow family, or, more technically, corvids.

The drawing was inspired by natural history specimens at La Specola in Florence.
