About this work

This drawing shows a bright, busy scene on a light background. People in fancy clothes stand near a small yellow pavilion. Birds fly around, and flowers fill the edges. The border has blue dots and green leaves. The whole thing looks like a pattern for embroidery on a pocket. It’s packed with tiny details, like birds, trees, and people doing things.
