This is a painting featuring two swans near a water body. One swan is swimming in the water, while the other is standing at the edge of the water. A colorful bird is perched on a rock, and another bird is on a branch of a nearby tree. The tree has green leaves and hanging vine-like growths with red berries. There is tranquil water in the background, and Latin text is at the top of the image, with a visible Roman numeral 'XXIV'. The style is reminiscent of illuminated manuscript illustrations.
