Happy Earth Day! 🌺🐦🌎

Celebrate the beauty of nature today with a close look at Martin Johnson Heade’s “Passion Flowers with Three Hummingbirds.”

[San Antonio Museum of Art @SAMAart]

Heade became fascinated with hummingbirds, which he depicted feeding from exotic flowers in misty settings.

This work is unique among Heade’s fifty-some scenes in the series. It is not only one of the largest, but also the only one to feature three birds.
