This is an image of a monochromatic ink painting. It depicts a bird perched on a branch or stems of bamboo leaves. The painting style is loose and expressive with brush strokes that are both confident and gestural, typical of East Asian ink wash painting. The bird is detailed with varying shades of black and greys, suggesting its feathers and the shadows. Its eye and beak are distinct, which gives the bird character and life. The bamboo leaves are rendered with swift strokes simulating the natural growth pattern and grace of the plant. There is a signature or artist's mark in the lower left of the image, which is common in East Asian artworks. Below that, there is a red seal, also typical for such pieces, which could either be the artist's seal or an ownership or authenticity stamp. The grayscale bar and the numbers "1948.84" at the bottom indicate that this is a photographed copy of the original artwork, likely from an archive or library and the numbers might reference an inventory, catalogue number, or the date related to the image or its acquisition.
