A vertical engraving on cream paper depicts a central heraldic coat of arms. Within a cross-hatched shield, three stags stand alert. A helmet rests atop the shield, surmounted by a stag-head crest with antlers. Elaborate foliage scrolls from the sides, framing a curved banner inscribed "CARPE DIEM." Below, the name "Edward Belden Greene" appears in angular script. The composition is formal and symmetrical, emphasizing traditional heraldic motifs against the neutral background.
