The painting transports us to the Renaissance era, where a maiden, clad in flowing garments, sits on a high bed. The scene, reminiscent of ancient canvases, captures the delicate borderline state between dream and wakefulness. Behind her, a window reveals an emerging sky, while a dark bird approaches, carrying a fragment of the night in its beak. On the right, against an ochre-toned wall, another bird perches on a branch, keenly observing, striving to anchor the maiden's attention and prevent her from fully succumbing to slumber. This artwork conceals the subtle border between the realm of dreams and waking life.
