European Golfinch

The European Goldfinch is one of the most exquisitely beautiful birds on earth — a tiny jewel of crimson, black, white, and brilliant gold that is all the more remarkable for being a common garden visitor rather than some exotic tropical species. The European Goldfinch panel renders this stunning bird in extraordinary, feather-precise detail that rewards close looking.

Place this 11×11″ transparent panel in a kitchen or study window and let natural light reveal the full brilliance of the plumage — the red of the face glows with the intensity of a gemstone, the yellow wing bars catch the light in flashes of pure gold, and the whole composition takes on the luminous quality of a medieval illuminated manuscript.

A cherished gift for birdwatchers, garden naturalists, and anyone with an eye for the extraordinary beauty that exists in the ordinary world just outside our windows. It is a piece that will make people stop mid-conversation to look more closely.

Standard size is 11×11″. Custom sizes — 8×8″, 15×15″, and larger — are available here. Each Sunlight Art® panel is printed on patent-pending transparent material and proudly handcrafted in the USA since 1996.
