19th c., Americana, a large scale gilt and forest green painted cast plaster eagle, depicted spread-wing, with crisply detailed overlapping … more 19th c., Americana, a large scale gilt and forest green painted cast plaster eagle, depicted spread-wing, with crisply detailed overlapping feathers. With mounting bracket on reverse. This is a very handsome example of an iconic form. The combination of the gilt and forest green paint is striking.

Depictions of eagles can be seen across American art. The national bird of the United States, the eagle has been used as a symbol of American freedom for centuries. This is a fine example in the style of John Haley Bellamy. Bellamy produced highly stylized carved wooden eagles, primarily designed for the fronts of ships and homes. Bellamy’s iconic style of carving eagles became so well known that they soon were labeled the “Bellamy Eagle,” and they have been mimicked by artists to this day. His eagles were highly prized for their quality and his attention to detail in crafting them. Bellamy’s eagles were carved in a stylistic manner, to show individual feathers but also evoke a sense of mass and movement in the wings.
