Framed Crane Artwork
Cranes practice mating rites and monogamy. That is why they are often said to be symbols of loyalty and longevity. The crane is also said to embody freedom, and being a high-ranking part of a hierarchy.
Framed Crane art pieces explore all of these interpretations of the crane. This subject inspires intense emotions. Asian cultures have a long relationship with the Crane and there have been many legends about the unusual bird.
Vision studio certainly seems to be exploring a loving relationship between two cranes in the framed Crane art titled “Oriental Crane II”. It shows us two cranes at water’s edge who seem to be embracing. The cozy connection the cranes share seems to be the subject of this heartwarming piece and one would be hard pressed to not feel the pull of love.
Freedom definitely comes to mind when looking at the framed Crane art pieces created by Keiichi Nishimura. In “Cranes Over Moon” the many cranes in flight almost seem to dance with one another and the moon in the beautiful night sky. “Cranes Over Waves” makes you want to soar with this trio of Cranes who seem to be magical.
“Bounty of the Wetlands” by Robert Bateman seems to be exploring hierarchical order. The tone is grim in this rendition of “Cranes”. The 7 birds pictured seem to be just a part of some larger flock plodding along tenaciously. And, one bird of the four pictured seems segregated in “Cranes” by Sakai Hoitsu.
