A surreal kitchen scene split into three interconnected sections, each representing a different stage of chicken preparation. The sections are divided by ornate, gilded picture frames, giving the impression of a triptych painting. In the leftmost frame, a live, colorful rooster struts proudly on a grassy patch, unaware of its fate. Sunlight streams in, giving this section a bright, pastoral feel. The middle frame shows a plucked chicken, pale and ready for cooking, perched on a cutting board. Kitchen utensils and ingredients surround it, suggesting imminent preparation. The rightmost frame features a golden-brown roasted chicken on a fancy serving platter, steam rising enticingly. It's garnished with herbs and surrounded by roasted vegetables. Connecting these three frames is a single, exaggerated, cartoon-style stone suspended from the top of the image. The stone is attached to an overly complex Rube Goldberg-esque contraption with gears, pulleys, and levers. As the stone descends, it triggers a series of whimsical actions: It tips over a bag of feed in the first frame, distracting the live rooster. It activates a cartoonish plucking machine in the second frame. It lights the oven in the third frame. In the foreground, a chef's hat sits on a small pedestal, with a trophy next to it, suggesting culinary success. The background blends from a sunny outdoor scene on the left to a cozy dining room on the right, tying the progression together.
