A whimsical and chaotic illustration of a multi-layered scene with a house at the bottom and various objects and animals stacked on top of each other. The house has a red roof with Christmas lights and decorations, and the layers above include a fire truck, cows, a circus tent, and a train, among other items. The very top features a barn with red birds, all set against a starry night sky.
