Ibis: The Four
Ibis: The Four and Ibis: The Five form a dignified diptych celebrating the elegance and legacy of one of nature’s most symbolic birds. Rendered in bronzed neutrals and soft metallic shadows, each ibis stands poised in graceful formation, their crescent-shaped profiles evoking the wisdom and mystery of ancient mythology.
Revered in Egyptian iconography as the sacred bird of Thoth — god of knowledge and writing — the ibis becomes here a symbol of collective intelligence, calm order, and enduring grace. Whether displayed together or individually, these works offer a contemplative tribute to the quiet majesty of the flock.
The gallant colony of ibis depicted in this composition stand out against the shadows of their bronzen environment. These frequent inhabitants of wetlands, forests and plains with their characteristic crescent moon profiles were renowned in ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman cultures, most prominently in portrayals of the Egyptian deity Thoth: the god of writing, magic and wisdom.
This work can function independently or perfectly compliment and accompany its partner "Ibis Five" in a two-set pair.
