Night Birds

"Night Birds" by E. Irving Couse portrays a serene, nocturnal scene of two Native American figures poised in the wilderness. A man, standing and aiming his bow with a focused gaze, prepares to shoot while a younger figure crouches beside him, watching attentively. The cool, blue tones and gentle light create a peaceful, mystical atmosphere, blending the figures seamlessly with their natural surroundings of rocks, water, and forest. Couse’s use of soft brushstrokes and muted colors brings a quiet intensity to the scene, capturing a moment of concentration and harmony with nature under the night sky.
