Can I share this curious bit of Faroese art factoid. The first Faroese artist Díðrikur á Skarvanesi died in obscurity, but his illustration of Faroese breeding birds (approx 1830s) is truly unique and (mayb biased) but I think this great skua is particularly beautiful 🌍🧪 #ornithology #teamskua #art

Photograph of painting by Díðrikur á Skarvanesi depicting most of the Faroese breeding birds. Painted approximately in 1830. His paintings are now on display in the national museum and were discovered long after his death.

@macronecteshalli.bsky.social and @thelabandfield.bsky.social you'll appreciate this one! In the bottom right corner you have the extinct white-speckled raven from the Faroes.
