Four white cockatoos sit in two pairs on the forked tops of two tree trunks, set against a dark brick wall. The birds are left almost blank in the white of the paper, with only their crests, eyes and beaks cut in, so they stand out sharply against the regular pattern of the bricks.

The woodcut is titled Vier kroonkaketoes (four crowned cockatoos) and dates from 1912; the monogram and date are cut into the block below the birds. Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita (1868–1944) was a Dutch printmaker known for his woodcuts of animals and birds.

Lab-printed to order on lustre photo paper, in a 2:3 format: 8×12, 12×18, 16×24, 20×30, 24×36 and 40×60 inches. Its wide shape suits a living room, a dining room or the wall above a sofa.
