Bird painter, Painter, Bird painter, Illustrator, Lithographer, b. 1860 - d. 1935

Artist Archibald Thorburn earned the grand accolade of being one of the best watercolor birdlife painters in history. Born in 1860 in Scotland, Thorburn was always interested in wildlife and birds and started drawing his observations in his garden as a youngster. Having studied first in Scotland and later in London, Archibald Thorburn's prints were regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy during the 1880s and 1890s. He had the honor of painting Queen Victoria on at least three occasions. 

As an artist, Archibald Thorburn was asked to create pictures for the Coloured Figures of the Birds of the British Isles publication in 1887, which helped launch him into the public eye. Archibald Thorburn's drawings are preliminary sketches of birds, and due to his popularity, they are also much sought after.

    Signed A. Thorburn to the base. A finely cast bronze sculpture of a falcon perched on an ornate gilt bronze pedestal, mounted on a stepped black marble base. The falcon is depicted in exquisite detail, with finely sculpted feathers and a poised, watchful expression. The base features intricate leaf and vine motifs. Archibald Thorburn grew up in Viewfield House on the outskirts of Lasswade, a rural village to the southeast of Edinburgh. His father Robert Thorburn, an artist himself, was an exacting man and demanded the highest accuracy, ripping up any of his son's weaker sketches. Thorburn soon became highly skilled at producing accurate renderings of the British wildlife, aided no doubt by his countless jaunts through the Scottish countryside. Archibald THORBURN (Schotland, 1860-1935). Gesigneerd A. Thorburn aan de onderkant. Een fijn gegoten bronzen beeld van een valk die op een sierlijke vergulde bronzen voetsteun rust, gemonteerd op een gestapelde zwarte marmeren basis. De valk is in exquisite details weergegeven, met fijn gesculpteerde veren en een beheersde, waakzame uitdrukking. De basis heeft ingewikkelde bladeren- en wijnrankmotieven. Archibald Thorburn groeide op in Viewfield House aan de rand van Lasswade, een plattelandsdorp ten zuidoosten van Edinburgh. Zijn vader, Robert Thorburn, een kunstenaar, was een veeleisend man en eiste de hoogste precisie, waarbij hij elke zwakkere schets van zijn zoon ripte. Thorburn werd al snel zeer bedreven in het maken van nauwkeurige afbeeldingen van de Britse fauna, ongetwijfeld geholpen door zijn talloze tochten door het Schotse platteland. Archibald THORBURN (Schottland, 1860-1935) Signiert A. Thorburn an der Unterseite. Eine fein gegossene Bronzeskulptur eines Falken, der auf einem verzierten vergoldeten Bronzeständer ruht, montiert auf einer gestuften schwarzen Marmorbasis. Der Falke ist in exquisiten Details dargestellt, mit fein gesculptierten Federn und einem ruhigen, wachsamen Ausdruck. Die Basis weist aufwendige Blatt- und Weinstockmotive auf. Archibald Thorburn wuchs im Viewfield House am Rande von Lasswade auf, einem ländlichen Dorf südöstlich von Edinburgh. Sein Vater, Robert Thorburn, selbst ein Künstler, war ein anspruchsvoller Mann und verlangte höchste Präzision, wobei er jede schwächere Skizze seines Sohnes zerriss. Thorburn wurde schnell sehr geschickt darin, genaue Darstellungen der britischen Tierwelt zu schaffen, unterstützt sicherlich durch seine zahllosen Ausflüge durch die schottische Landschaft.
