For #WorldStorkDay :
Tumblr media
Géza Vastagh (Hungarian, 1866–1919)
Three Marabous, 1909
pastel on cardboard 
H 38 x W 48.5cm
Private Collection
🆔 Marabou Stork (Leptoptilos crumenifer), native to sub-Saharan Africa.
“[Vastagh’s] work is dominated by animal depictions, especially lions, but the animals of the Hungarian Puszta also influenced his work. With a government scholarship he traveled to North Africa, Algeria and Tunis in 1898 and was able to portray the animals in their natural habitat. He also found his motifs in the zoos of Berlin, Hamburg and Leipzig.”

But long it could not be Till that her garments, heavy with their drink, Pull’d the poor wretch from her melodious lay To muddy death.
