Small beautiful tragedy


To be stuffed for viewing after death is a strange fate, I suppose an honourable one however, to do so representing your species in the NY Museum of Natural History.
Much like the immortalisation of the mighty famous collecting dust in Madame Tussauds. (Just, far more beautiful to view.)
I truly felt for this vunerable specimen. I'm pretty sure it didn't rest upside down in its waking life.

The painted sunsets in the dioramas were super. The perfect excuse to use illuminous orange. Yes!
