This is a black and white woodcut print depicting a bird perched on a branch of a willow tree. The bird is rendered in solid black, with fine, delicate lines used to suggest its feathers and form. It has a long, pointed beak and a small, round eye. The willow tree is depicted with long, flowing branches that cascade downwards, creating a curtain-like effect. The branches are composed of numerous thin, parallel lines that create a sense of texture and movement. The background is solid black, which emphasizes the contrast between the bird and the willow tree. The overall effect is one of elegance and tranquility. There is a signature and date in the lower left corner, and a handwritten inscription at the bottom. The style is reminiscent of traditional Japanese woodblock prints.
