Exclusive Collection Wall Painting Amazonas Toucans

Under the motto "Make the world a better place", Meissen designer Lena Hensel captured fascinating motifs from the Brazilian Amazon on her canvas. In her search, she came across the yolk toucan, one of the most symbolic birds in Brazil and Latin America with its characteristic beak and striking plumage. In intense colors, she used a naturalistic painting style and various, very elaborate painting techniques to create the tropical habitat of this fascinating bird. Two large toucans dominate the scene against a spectacular evening sky in various shades of purple and violet, framed by lush palm trees and other exotic rainforest plants.

The large, long beak is its most striking feature and is not only beautiful, but also an indispensable tool for foraging and regulating body temperature. However, the toucan - an essential part of the balance of Brazil's ecosystem - is threatened with extinction due to habitat destruction, illegal hunting and wildlife trade. With the three-part mural series "Amazonas", Porzellanmanufaktur Meissen wants to set an artistic example for the preservation of this unique bird and its homeland.
