Bird on Autumn Branch — Antique Japanese Ink Painting
A delicate traditional Japanese ink painting depicting a small black-and-white bird perched gracefully on a slender branch, surrounded by golden autumn maple leaves. The refined brushwork and airy composition, accompanied by fine calligraphy, capture the quiet poetry and seasonal elegance characteristic of classic East Asian nature studies.
