About the Item
This atmospheric oil painting, attributed to J. F. Doulhilt, presents a striking scene of storks gathered atop a densely woven nest, set against a softly illuminated sky. Although unsigned, the work bears many hallmarks associated with Doulhilt’s hand, including the expressive handling of texture, the moody palette, and the careful attention to avian form and posture. The central stork, rendered with confident verticality, anchors the composition, while the surrounding birds introduce movement, narrative, and familial intimacy.
The artist’s richly layered brushwork brings the tangled nest to life, creating a vivid contrast with the serene cloud-washed backdrop. This juxtaposition of dynamism and tranquility evokes the wild elegance of these birds in their natural habitat. As an attributed work, it offers an intriguing glimpse into a lesser-known but skillful painter of nineteenth-century wildlife subjects.

Pelicanformes
By Alex Beard
Located in New Orleans, LA
American painter and author Alex Beard is best known for his elaborate wildlife compositions created in his signature style of gestural painting, which he has coined “Abstract Naturalism.”
Raised in a family that fostered philanthropy, creativity and exploration, Alex has traveled extensively around the world. The diverse cultures, colors, and climates of Africa, India, China, Australia and the Americas have profoundly influenced both his professional and artistic practice.
Fueled by curiosity about the cultures and wildlife he had been exposed to in his early years, Beard's time in nature enables him to continually hone his style – creating complex compositions in which abstraction and figuration collide, while exploring themes of cultural and environmental interconnectivity.
Beard’s work figures prominently in several private and public collections and he has exhibited extensively throughout the United States, including solo exhibitions in New York, Los Angeles, New Orleans, and Hong Kong. He received his BA from Tufts University...
