The artwork is titled "Craene / Grus / Grue" and is part of a larger collection commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II in the late 16th to early 17th century. This particular piece belongs to the third album dedicated to drawings of birds, which is one of twelve albums featuring animals, birds, and plants from that era. Measuring approximately 285 mm in height and 169 mm in width, this exquisite depiction was created using various artistic techniques such as watercolor paint, deck paint, pencil, chalk, ink, and pen on paper. The top right corner bears the number "15" indicating its place within the series. What makes this artwork even more intriguing is that it includes explanations written in Dutch, Latin, and French languages. Additionally, at the top of the print are nine language translations for its title. The artist behind this masterpiece is Anselmus Boetius de Boodt who worked diligently between 1596 and 1610 to bring these stunning illustrations to life. In this specific drawing focused on shore-birds and wading-birds like cranes. With its rich historical significance and meticulous attention to detail captured through various mediums of artistry; this print truly embodies both beauty and scientific curiosity surrounding European cranes during Rudolf II's reign.
