Lying down on the bank and blending into the morning nature...

An egret stands on the left, while a second bends its long neck among the plants. Above them, a golden celestial body enters the crop behind fine branches.

Bands of blue and grey give depth to the setting. Their patterns, black umbels and small leaves surround the birds like a riverbank observed from very close by.

In the original painting, the celestial body is worked in gold leaf. The print reproduces its shades in the upper part alongside the blues of the landscape.
