Ink wash of a rooster with a long, dark tail, head angled down
A vertical, black and white ink wash painting depicts a rooster angled downwards from the upper right to the lower left. The rooster's long, slender tail feathers extend upwards towards the top edge of the frame, rendered with dark, sweeping brushstrokes that gradually lighten. Its body is composed of varying shades of grey wash, suggesting layered plumage, with darker, more defined strokes forming a prominent wing on the right side. The head is sharply angled downwards towards the lower left, with a lightly outlined, feathery comb and a small, dark eye. A dark, pointed beak is visible at the very bottom of the head. Two slender legs with distinct claws extend from the lower body, drawn with fine, dark lines. The background is a plain, light grey wash, providing a subtle contrast to the darker tones of the rooster.
