Galapagos Finches SET OF 4 oil studies

Set of 4 original studies in oil and gold leaf - Galapagos Island Finches illustrating adaptive radiation.  This natural history set was inspired by Darwin's early observations of adaptive radiation in these birds.  Finches on the Galapagos Islands are thought to have originated from a common finch-like ancestor, and evolved into various species occupying different ecological niches.  The diversity of beak shape indicates their specialized skills in foraging for food.

SIZE: 7 x 7 inches each, including frame (each artwork is 6x6)
