Royal Family - Mute Swans By Robert Bateman
Royal Family - Mute Swans by Robert Bateman
"It's two American cousins, the trumpeter and whistling swans, are of the wild, remote areas. The mute swan, on the other hand, is associated with soft landscapes of winding rivers and weeping willows or lush parks and grand estates. This is the elegant swan of poetry and songs."
"The mute swan is a bird of Britain and Europe that has been transplanted to America and became established as a wild bird. His two American cousins, the trumpeter and whistling swans, are of the wild, remote areas of the west and north. The mute swan, on the other hand, is associated with soft landscapes of winding rivers and weeping willows or lush parks and grand estates. This is the elegant swan of poetry and songs. It is this mood of domestic tranquility which I wanted to convey in this painting."
"The cygnets, of course, are the ugly ducklings of the children's tale. They are not cute, but have a sculptural dignity of their own and are not at all like the parents. They form an interacting flotilla of individuals with the queenly mother in command."
"In keeping with the royal connection, I wanted to give the painting a silvery, flat look almost like a medallion. The floating willow leaf is deliberately placed as a touch of garnish, perhaps like a piquant sliver of lemon or lime." ~ Robert Bateman
