Joseph Cornell box art

Looking through some of Joseph Cornell's, I have concluded that he really likes putting things in boxes.
He also has quite the fascination with birds. I like how he puts with flat images in 3D space along with small 3D objects. His pieces consist with a lot of washed out, paler tones as opposed to a ton a color.





I read that Joseph would have liked to travel, but never did and this piece in particular really shows that with the stamp, the birds, the coins and the cards.  I guess you could even say it was his 'dream' to travel. Ha.
