William Henry Hunt was known as Birds Nest Hunt in reference to his favourite subject. He has used tiny brushstrokes and scratched lines to suggest twigs and grass inside the nest. He painted the eggs over a white base layer of paint, which makes the colours appear more solid and bright. The background is created with much looser washes.); Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums
