Claire Rosen is an award-winning fine art photographer whose work explores the intersection of art, history, and nature, often blending live animals with richly detailed, fantastical settings. Her signature style is influenced by classical painting, children’s illustration, natural history, and Victorian-era aesthetics, resulting in images that feel both whimsical and carefully composed. 

In her series Birds of a Feather, Rosen builds on the long-standing human fascination with birds as symbols of freedom, beauty, and transcendence. The project features portraits of live birds photographed against richly detailed, historically inspired settings, where both the animals and the environments play an equally important role in the composition. The result is a layered body of work that sits between art history, natural observation, and visual storytelling.

    I have one of these! He's got a real sense of humor and is a chatty patty! Reminds me of a golden retriever but in bird form. Sunny.
