Raven at the Tower
Ravens at the Tower of London, oil painting on primed/stretched 18"x24" canvas. Created from multiple photos taken during one of my many trips to the UK. Photos posted below to show progress as composition was finalized.
There are nine ravens at the Tower today. Charles II is thought to have been the first to insist that the ravens of the Tower be protected after he was warned that the crown and the Tower itself would fall if they left.
