Toasted Bird Follies Framed Art Print by Aynah Buckley

This item is a framed art print featuring a stylized illustration of a chicken, reminiscent of a butcher's diagram. The print is housed within a black frame, likely made of wood or a composite material, with a white mat that provides separation between the artwork and the frame, enhancing its presentation. The artwork itself depicts a rooster in profile, with various Spanish words indicating different cuts of meat or body parts, such as 'Cabeza' (head), 'Cuello' (neck), 'Pechuga' (breast), 'Pierna' (leg), 'Muslo' (thigh), 'Ala' (wing), 'Cola' (tail), 'Trasero' (rear/backside), 'Hígado' (liver), 'Corazón' (heart), and 'Lomo' (loin). Below the rooster, three eggs are illustrated, with 'Huevos' (eggs) written across them. The background of the print has a mottled, abstract appearance with muted tones of beige, brown, and possibly grey, suggesting a textured or aged paper effect. The rooster is rendered in black outline with brown and reddish-brown coloring, and the text within its body is in bold, capitalized script, primarily in black. The overall style is whimsical and illustrative, with a clear and crisp presentation. The print appears to be in excellent condition, with no visible damage, creases, or discoloration. The frame also seems well-preserved, though reflections on the glass obscure some details. Below the main image, in the bottom left corner, there is text that reads "'TOASTED BIRD FOLLIES'" and in the bottom middle, it indicates "1/3", suggesting it is the first print in a series of three. In the bottom right corner, there is a signature that appears to be "Aynah Buckley.". Based on the contemporary art style and the numbered edition '1/3', it is likely a modern print, possibly from the late 20th or early 21st century. The quality of the printing appears high, indicating good craftsmanship.
