caption: The image shows a painting of a man with a beard and a hat, holding a book in one hand and a bird in the other. He is wearing a traditional Chinese robe and has a stern expression on his face. His hair is long and dark, and his eyes are focused intently on something in the distance. The bird is perched on his shoulder, its wings spread wide and its beak open as if it is about to take flight. The background is a deep blue, with a few stars twinkling in the night sky.
