The paper-like seagulls are being showcased with the lighting. The lighting is causing the figures of the flock of birds to be cast upon the sides of the window and mannequins, this creates a calming mood. The way this is lit is causing the flight of the birds to be multidimensional and as if we caught them in motion, because of this the placement of light and shadow is a success.
It is hard to understand what specifically is being attempted to be emphasized. If the goal was to showcase the clothing on our mannequins, it is unsuccessful. This is an example of unsuccessful lighting because our eyes are drawn only around the main subjects. We first see the female's shins,thighs, broken arm, and then the red and white striped wall paper. The faces of our 'friends' are blacked out and left in the shadow. This only causes confusion and could leave the viewer with an eerie mood.
agreed!
