About this work

This print shows two birds standing in a marshy area. One bird is tall with a long neck and striped feathers. The other is smaller, with a curved beak and fluffy body. Tall grass and a bamboo fence appear in the background. The artist used simple black lines to fill in the shapes. The birds look calm, standing still in the wetland. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
