This is one of the most famous and most illustrated of Aesop’s Fables. Most illustrations show the caged dove with the crow outside looking in. I used the perspective from the inside of the cage.

Based on Aesop's THE DOVE AND THE CROW
A Dove shut up in a cage was bragging about the large number of young ones that she had hatched. A Crow hearing her, said: "My good friend, end this ridiculous boasting. The larger the number of your family, the greater your cause of sorrow, in seeing them shut up in this prison-house.”

MORAL: TO ENJOY OUR BLESSINGS, WE MUST HAVE FREEDOM.
