The image shows a botanical illustration of a rose plant. The plant has a long, thin stem with thorns and green leaves. Two pink flowers are on the plant; one is fully open, and the other is partially closed. The open flower has a yellow center with many stamens. A small, yellow bud is on the left side. The background of the image is a light beige color. The image includes cursive text at the bottom. The left text reads "Rosa indica". The right text reads "Roser à feuille plate". The bottom text includes several lines of very small cursive writing.
