On the right, a rhombus is painted with three birds near a branch; while on the left, two trompe-l'oeil are associated: a circular blue and white porcelain dish decorated with pagodas and rivers; and a painting on a background of wood veins bringing together various objects including a vase surmounted by a branch of coral, and a fan. On the reverse, on iridescent white paper, a rock, peonies and cherry branches. The throat is punctuated by three cartels painted in Chinese style showing a bird on either side of a garden scene.
