This unique oil painting has an interesting pedigree. It was commissioned to accompany an article by Stephen Jay Gould, the Noted Harvard Paleontologist. The idea was to depict an amazonian environment where life was illustrated in its various forms such as plant, animal and fishes. Many hours went into the research of underwater inhabitants in the Amazon River as well as the birds that grace the skies above. Its is painted on stretched canvas.
