You are bidding on a stunning work from artist Basil Ede capturing three white breasted nuthatches in on some branches in a spring scene from the year 1968-copyright 1969. This lithograph is in very good condition. The wooden frame is in excellent condition.In the mid-nineteen seventies Basil Ede was commissioned to paint all the birds of North America. Mr. Ede faced this huge task, and completed dozens of beautiful paintings over the next few years. But Basil was soon to face an even larger task. In the late eighties, due to medical complications, he lost the use of the hand he painted with. Basil was faced with the task of learning to paint using his left hand. It is safe to say that Basil met this unthinkable and seemingly impossible task, and conquered it masterfully! His recent paintings in oils, using his left hand, are proof enough of his accomplishment.
