Description for blind and low-vision visitors
A horizontal painting organized around a thick reddish-brown tree trunk that rises vertically through the center, dotted with small insects and spiders and with a thin snake coiling at its base. To the left stands a tall long-legged bird with red legs beside a small green sapling, with another long-necked bird and a small perched bird above it. At the upper center and right, birds fly and perch, while a large serpent with an open fanged mouth and a red-spotted body curves down the right side. A spiny lizard or iguana crawls across the lower right, and a small spotted crocodile-like creature lies at the lower left. The background is a warm field of orange and yellow with combed radiating strokes. A small signature appears in the lower center.
