Detailed Description
A bird perches on a flowering branch against a light, muted yellow background. The bird, positioned slightly to the right of the center, faces right. Its back and upper wings are olive green, while its chest and belly are pale yellow. The bird's head is a light blue-grey, and its upper wing feathers show subtle reddish-brown markings. It grips a gnarled, dark brown branch that originates in the lower left and extends horizontally across the middle of the composition. The branch is adorned with several clusters of small, light pink blossoms, each with a yellow center, and a few slender green leaves. Additional larger, broader green leaves are visible below the main branch. In the upper left corner, a vertical inscription in black characters is arranged in multiple columns. The visible characters read: 故園 依舊 桃李 春風 畫意 詩情 丁卯 仲春 寫於 湖上 漁莊. Below this text, a small red square seal is present. The entire painted area is bordered by a gold frame with a speckled, textured pattern.
