Hand Made Wool Tapestry from Peru, "Two Toucans"
Perched on twin branches, blue eyed toucans chat cheerfully. Nilda Amaro depicts the sleek black birds in their Peruvian habitat. With a lightweight, spongy bill larger than the bird itself, the toucan is a colorful resident of the rainforest. Amaro creates the beautiful images in a handloomed wool tapestry.
Titled "Pareja de Tucanes" in Spanish.
