The composition features two birds, mirror images of each other, their beaks tenderly touching in an anthropomorphic display of affection akin to a human kiss. The background's vibrant yellow provides a stark contrast to the birds' detailed patterning, imbuing the artwork with a sense of vivacity. The simplistic colour scheme accentuates the charming gesture, inviting viewers to appreciate the whimsical charm of this imagined scene.Provenance
