The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The page on the right has a large rectangular text box with black calligraphy writing. The text box is surrounded by a borderless frame of blue vines with leaves and small colorful flags. The border also contains various birds and butterflies. In the bottom-right corner of the text box is a blue bird with a red head and a long beak. On the left side of the page is a green jester-like figure wearing a red hat and a red and yellow outfit, holding a long staff with a red flag. The figure is surrounded by the same blue vines border as the text box. The page on the left is not visible, but the edge of the pages is scalloped. The book is open on a black background.
