A vertically oriented color lithograph features a dense, all-over field of mottled, earthy tones. Splotchy patches of rust and reddish-brown overlap with muted specks of mossy green, tan, and pale yellow, creating a grainy, crusted surface. This textured rectangular field is centered on a wide, off-white paper border. Along the bottom, small handwritten text and a signature are inscribed in pencil beneath the image.
