This image shows a person sitting on a chair by a window, dressed in a red coat and dark pants. Outside, two giant blue-green birds stand on a ledge, their wings spread wide. The scene behind them is a mix of simple shapes—trees, a building, and a bright sky. The birds look almost too big to be real, as if they’ve stepped out of a dream. The colors are flat and bright, with no shadows to soften the edges. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how artists print images like this.
