Águila Americana

American Eagle

Dominican artist Natanael Gell paints a patriotic realism painting made with oil on canvas. A bald eagle flies in the cloudy blue sky with the American flag in it’s beak.  The bald eagle was chosen in June of 1782 as the emblem of the United States of America, because of its long life, great strength and majestic looks, and also because it was then believed to exist only on this continent.
