Three Birds 1952

"Three Birds" is a woodcut print created by American artist Milton Avery in 1952. The artwork features three stylized birds in flight against a stark black and yellow background, a signature style of Avery's artistic approach. The birds are rendered in bold outlines, with a limited color palette that emphasizes their silhouettes against a textured background. This minimalist approach, characteristic of Avery's work, allows for a focus on the dynamic movement and simplicity of the birds in flight. The print exemplifies Avery's unique style, blending modernism with a lyrical sense of nature.
