Visual Summary

Brief Description

Two dark birds above a stylized wave; a misty landscape with mountains, waterfall, and buildings

Detailed Description

This two-panel artwork features a natural scene against a light, neutral background, framed by gold borders. The left panel depicts two dark-bodied birds with white undersides in flight. One bird is positioned higher and to the right, with wings spread, while the other is lower and to the left, with angled wings. Below them, a large, stylized wave in shades of grey and black curls upwards from the bottom left, its crest breaking towards the right. Two small red square seals are visible in the lower left corner of this panel. The right panel presents a misty landscape. In the upper half, a dark, rounded mountain peak emerges from a soft, grey mist that obscures the middle ground. A waterfall cascades down the right side of the mountain. Below the mist, several trees with green, needle-like foliage, resembling pines, are interspersed with trees bearing white blossoms. A winding river or stream flows from the upper left towards the lower center. In the lower center, two small structures with dark, thatched roofs are nestled among the trees. Two small red square seals are visible in the lower right corner of this panel.
