This classic greenery depicts two birds in a lush landscape. One is perched on a branch, while the other, on the ground, appears to be feeding on a worm. In the upper part of the composition, in the background, is an extremely tidy walled garden, whose legibility contrasts with the dense vegetation in the foreground.
