Slaughtered Birds, between 1663-1722. The painting represents hunted birds laid out on the ground: in the centre, a large duck strongly illuminated by light falling from above from the left; on the sides, a grey-and-brown woodcock with a long beak and several birds with red plumage, which is an essential tone of colour that stands in contrast to the entire composition dominated by grey and brown.
