Two hawks are depicted in a painting. The birds are detailed and realistic, showcasing their feather patterns and talons. One hawk is standing upright facing the viewer with its head turned to the side, displaying its plumage which ranges from dark browns to lighter shades blending into the wings. The second hawk is in a dynamic pose with wings partially spread and head bent downwards. Branches with a rough texture are shown in the background. The style is reminiscent of John James Audubon.
