Still life of bird (cockatoo?) perched on the arm of an ornate chair, one foot holding a carved ivory object (balls within balls) at the end of a carved ivory chain with a tassel at the end. The chair also supports a tall oriental decorated vase. In the foreground a carved stone (?) putto holds a dish above his head, on this a strip of lace is draped which covers also an ornate frame in the centre foreground. To the left of the putto ornate initials are visible (MLL?). Behind the cockatoo is a birdcage, with peacock feathers; behind all is a draped cloth. To the right is a fringed, ornate shawl (or similar) partially obscuring the vase.
