This is a drawing of two rooster heads. The drawing depicts an upper and lower rooster head with intricate lines. The artist uses black and red chalk to highlight the texture of the feathers and contours of the roosters' faces. The lines convey the movement and direction of the feathery plumes. Both roosters display a focused gaze with emphasis on the detailed eye area. Minimal shading is used to draw attention to the expressive lines and textures.
