Generations

* The stork has always been associated with the concept of family.
* A popular euphemism explains the birth of a newborn as being "brought by the stork."

We are witnessing, as if through the eye of the stork, an important and exciting moment for two generations. As the young couple leaves the parents we can guess from the body language in the painting that they received the parents' blessing judging by the approving stance of the father and the mother's wave, this is a happy moment.
The stork's nest and the baby birds are a projection and a symbol of the future family life for the newlyweds.
