Pancha Tantra Walton Ford

At First Glance, Walton Ford's Large-Scale, Highly-Detailed Watercolors of Animals Recall the Prints of 19th Century Illustrators John James Audubon and Edward Lear.

In this Stunning but Sinister Visual Universe, Beasts and Birds are not Mere Aesthetic Objects but Rather Dynamic Actors in Allegorical Struggles: a Wild Turkey Crushes a Small Parrot in its Claw; a Troupe of Monkeys Wreak Havoc on a Formal Dinner Table; an American Buffalo is Surrounded by Bloodied white Wolves.
