The image is a black and white illustration of a young boy with a thoughtful expression. He is wearing a sweater with a textured pattern and has a pair of glasses on his face. The boy is holding a small bird in his hand, which appears to be a finch. The bird is perched on the boy's fingers, and he seems to be gently petting it. The background is plain white, which puts the focus entirely on the boy and the bird. The style of the illustration is reminiscent of a comic book or graphic novel, with bold lines and shading that gives a sense of depth and texture.
