Bluebird

A Brazilian bluebird extends its wings and lifts its sweet voice in song. Cactus flourishes beneath the starry sky of the country's Northeastern region and a lizard rests on a green hill. J. Borges creates a cheerful woodcut print in his hallmark naif style as he recalls his childhood there. Birds are a favorite theme.

Xylograph (woodcut) print on paper, titled 'Azulão' in Portuguese.
