Framed Stork Art

The stork is a powerful bird with a long history and great cultural significance, making framed stork art a wonderful choice for the bird-loving art enthusiast. A wide variety of cultures have some sort of mythology or folklore associated with the stork, which is sometimes incorporated into works with storks as their subjects.

One of the most famous pieces of stork folklore in European-based cultures is the association with storks and delivering newborn babies. Many framed stork art pieces deal with this theme. The legend is centuries old but was popularized in the nineteenth century by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. Cindy Egger shows a cartoon-style stork using its beak to carry a cloth containing a baby in “Stork Boy” and “Stork Girl.” “Stork with a Baby Flying Over Moon” by Panoramic Images takes a more realistic approach to its imagery with the silhouette of a stork and a baby flying in front of a moonlit landscape.
