Birds of a Feather...

The symbolism surrounding the bird is unequalled by any other creature. Godlike, mysterious, benevolent or evil, they can be associated with fire, with freedom, with fragility and have been a recurrent symbol in mythology, literature and art through time. Illustrated with a beautiful collection of works from The State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg and other 20th century Russian masterpieces, "Birds of a Feather", figures the place of birds in human culture.
