You see a busy park scene: two roosters, a hen with chicks, a hoopoe in a tree, a flying dove, peacocks, a turkey, and a swan in the distance. This painting feels like a snapshot of a quiet moment—no people, just birds going about their day. The artist paid close attention to feathers and light, making each bird look real enough to touch. If you like this, spend time with the Rijksmuseum’s collection of small, detailed nature scenes.
