A horizontally oriented sheet of textured tan paper displays W.H. Auden's poem in dark serif font at the upper right. Occupying the bottom half, a large blue-inked illustration features dense, swirling, cross-hatched lines that depict a reclining figure draped in fabric. Small production credits naming David Schorr and Ken Botnick appear toward the bottom left. The paper's rough, deckled edges frame the somber composition.
