The background is a soft, light beige with a faint sketch of hills or clouds. The artist focused on the birds’ details, like their sharp eyes and textured feathers. The colors are simple but precise, with no extra shadows or bright highlights. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
