# Bird with Letter Ornament, Hieronymus Bosch

**Art ornament** inspired by the remarkable **Bird with Letter from Hieronymus Bosch's The Temptation of Saint Anthony**. This miniature version brings remarkable detail from Bosch's masterpiece to the Christmas tree as an ornament. The strange bird-like creature appears to deliver a letter like a mysterious messenger. This remarkable bird with a letter comes from The Temptation of Saint Anthony, the famous triptych by Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450-1516). Bosch populated his paintings with fantastic animals, hybrid creatures, and enigmatic details, often with symbolic meanings that are not easily explained. 

Like a curious medieval postman, the bird appears to be delivering a message to the figures in the scene. It is a characteristic example of Bosch's unique visual world, in which the everyday and the fantastic constantly merge. 

Measures 3.5 in H x 2.5 in W x 1 in D. Weighs 4 oz. The figurine is self-standing but is a little easy to tip. Part of the Parastone Museum Collection. ORJB01
