A white crane with a spread wing stands on a rock among pine trees and flowering plants
Detailed Description
A large white crane with black primary feathers and a red patch on its head stands prominently in the lower-middle section of two vertical panels, straddling their seam. Its left wing is partially spread upwards, revealing the white underside, while its head is turned to the left, looking downwards. The crane stands on its bent right leg, with its left leg lifted. A light brown rock formation is visible around the crane. Various green leafy plants, some with small reddish-orange flowers, grow around the rock and extend across the lower half of both panels. In the upper left, dark green pine branches extend downwards. In the upper right, a gnarled tree trunk with dark green pine branches rises from the right edge, and delicate white and light orange flowering vines hang downwards from the top. The background is a muted ochre color. The scene is framed by a decorative gold and green border. The ground around the base of the tree and rocks is depicted with shades of green and brown.
